The Netwide Assembler on a Mac. The Netwide Assembler or NASM, is an x86 and x64 assembler designed for UNIX operation systems. The assembler comes with documentation which will help you with the basics. It supports a multiple range of object file formats, including Mac, UNIX, and Windows formats. SASM supports 4 working with assemblers - NASM, MASM, GAS and FASM in 2 modes - x64 and x86. You can choose mode in settings on 'Build' tab. Also there you can change assembler and linker options and choose programs for assembling and linking. If you are undecided on which personal trainer certification to choose, I suggest you take the quiz to find out which Cert is the best fit for you. This study guide covers the most recent volume of the textbook: NASM Essentials of Personal Fitness Training 6th Edition. This page contains links to the study guide for each chapter in the NASM textbook, a NASM practice test as well as a full.
The answer to your question is yes and no at the same time. You cannont natively Compile (since this is assembly code its assemble) x86 code with nasm on the OSX side of things. This is mainly because there is not an assembler for mac, but there is a way to do this. This is basically what I did last semester in my x86 class. I got a copy of Parallels and XP from the compsci dept at the university (just the windows i had to buy Parallels) and installed all my x86 stuff there. That way if you have something you are using in class its the same for your mac. As far as an assembler with an ide i think you are out of luck we always used notepad then compiled with a bat file. So basically you would just have to set your bat file to point at your .asm file and have one for a full compile and one for a debug so you can do both.
If you do not know bat files are easy to make just open notepad and when you save just move the box at the bottom to all files and name it *.bat.
I hope this helps

The program in your example is a 32-bit Windows program. These days, it's probably better to write a 64-bit program. To covert this to 64-bit macOS program, you should make sure you have a recent version of nasm, and have gcc installed.
About the App
- App name: nasm
- App description: Netwide Assembler (NASM) is an 80×86 assembler
- App website: http://www.nasm.us/
Install the App
- Press
Command+Spaceand type Terminal and press enter/return key. - Run in Terminal app:
ruby -e '$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)' < /dev/null 2> /dev/null
