You could go to and get the Altair 8800 or IMSAI 8080 emulator. Run the program and toggle in binary code for these easy to use 8 bit processors. There's a short manual for the IMSAI on the same page and the manual plus instruction s

Grant's statements are correct and his advice is sound. I would not waste my time writing machine code, even as a hobby (and not even if your other hobbies include juggling chain saws). It's too time-consuming, tedious, bug-prone, and eyeglass-prescription-enhancing. Programming in assembly la
