I'm glad to help.  Once you start using that site, you will quickly get
addicted.

The more you play with godbolt.org, the more you'll get used to it.

One tip when generating x86 assembly on the site - there is a checkbox
labelled "Intel" that lets you choose between Intel format assembly, and
AT&T format assembly.  People with *nix backgrounds often find the AT&T
format more familiar, people with Windows backgrounds often prefer the
Intel format.  Some people get /really/ worked up about it and think
anyone who doesn't agree with their personal opinions on the choice, are
clearly insane.  I recommend trying both and using the one that looks
clearer to you.
