-This verifies that the venerable `add` instruction and our setup are working.
+These examples use the venerable ADD instruction to:
+
+* introduce the basics of how a given assembly works: how many inputs / outputs, who is input and output, can it use memory or just registers, etc.
++
+It is then a big copy paste for most other data instructions.
+* verify that the venerable `add` instruction and our assertions are working
 
 Then, modify that program to make the assertion fail:
