Writing a CPU emulator is, in my opinion, the best way to REALLY understand how a CPU works.

The 68k disassembler we wrote in college was such a Neo “I know kung fu” moment for me. It was the missing link that let me reason about code from high-level language down to transistors and back. I can only imagine writing a full emulator is an order of magnitude more effective. Great article!
