I am new to learning assembly language. I wanted to know if using HLA assembler by Randall Hyde would be a good option for a beginner like me?
It seems good on documentation and educational material available on author's site but i wanted to take recommendations from you guys on which would be the best assembler for a beginner.

PS- I also have fair knowledge of c++ and java (but not advanced).
