I'm not sure if PRs are desired by this project. But I had some difficulty writing the, very simple, assembly functions that are included in this PR. My only challenge was the time it took to work through various types available, to eventually find the operand.Mem{} type which did exactly what I needed. As I couldn't find any examples which spell out how this type can be used I created these examples. I tried to maintain the style of READMEs that already exist (as they are excellent) but I am not certain they are 100% correct. |

This demonstrates how to read from memory locations using operand.Mem. I think this example is valuable because I had (arbitrarily) chosen looking up a slice/string index value in assembly as a learning task. I found doing this in avo surprisingly difficult because I didn't know which type to use to express a memory location. This should hopefully clarify that for other avo beginners.
It had scale set to 4, instead of 8. This _was_ a bug in the actual code as well, but it was fixed in the code and not in the README.
