title: Word, Doubleword, Quadword
body: <p>It's my second question, one after another. That's the problem with assembly (x86 - 32bit) too.</p>
  
  <p>"Programming from the Ground Up" says that 4bytes are 32bits and that's a word.
  But Intel's "Basic Architecture" guide says, that word is 16bits (2 bytes) and 4 bytes is a dualword. 
  Memory uses 4bytes words, to get to another word I have to skip next 4 bytes, on each word I can make 4 offsets (0-3) to read a byte, so it's wrong with Intel's name, but this memory definition goes from Intel, so what's there bad?</p>
  
  <p>And how to operate on words, dualword, quadwords in assembly? How to define the number as quadword?</p>
