I've never seen a line like .LDA.#5.0300.
I know that LDA #5 will load the value 5 into the A register, which
is nothing more than "A=5" from the logical perspective. You know
that since A=5 that later on in the program you could ask what is
A*10 and the running program will produce 50 if the value 5 is still
in A. It's that simple. LDA #5 means "Register A = 5"

That's the beauty of a good IDE that doesn't require a lot of
preconfiguration just to get things to work. If it comes 99% ready
to build and see it run, then what else could you ask for. :)
