Beginner Programming: Part 05

This series of mini-lectures is dedicated to my nephews, who say they want to learn how to program.

At this point I think I see the structure the lectures and homework need to take. The building of the DoHVM needs to be sliced into smaller pieces and more clearly defined for a beginner programmer to help guide them. The only way to do that is to design the DoHVM and the way I do that is building it for myself and discovering the requirements/design.

The ISA is coming together and most of the needed features of the DoHVM are better defined. From here I need to finish the implementing/designing the core VM instructions, document the design, then come up with a retroactive development plan for beginners.
