What I did was to look a lot on PB's assembly output. When I was unsure of how to translate a certain expression into assembly, I just typed the expression into PB and compiled it to asm (I have a batch file to do it from the tools menu). Very handy.

And again (I mentioned this in the tutorial ...

Just finished reading section 11 of your tutorial on pre-optimization :) .
