I just want too write simple .asm code for TASM that work as for in C++
int t=2;
for(int i=0;i<2;i++)
t=t+(i-1)*7*t;
How can I implement it with TASM?
This will loop from 1 to 100 in 8086 TASM:
.MODEL SMALL
.STACK 100h
.DATA
Finished DB 10, 13, 'Loop x 100 finished. Congratulations! $', 10, 13
.CODE
MAIN PROC
MOV AX, #data ; Required at the start of every program (inside your main procedure, from what I've seen)
MOV DS, AX
MOV CX, 100 ; Set CX to 100
MOV BX, 0 ; Counter (for double-verification, I guess...lol)
StrtLoop: ; When a loop starts, it does CX-- (subtracts 1 from CX)
INC BX ; This does BX++, which increments BX by 1
LOOP StrtLoop ; Go back to StrtLoop label
CMP BX, 100 ; Compare BX to 100...
JE DispMsg ; Jump-if-Equal...CMP BX, 100 sets flags, and if they are set,
; JE will Jump you to DispMsg (to get "congratulations" message).
JMP SkipMsg ; Jump to the SkipMsg label (so you don't see the "congratulations" message).
DispMsg: ; If BX = 100, you JE here.
MOV AH, 09H ; Displays the message stored in the defined byte "Finished"
MOV DX, OFFSET Finished
INT 21H
SkipMsg: ; If BX != 100, you JMP here.
MOV AL, 0h ; Op code to exit to DOS from the assembler.
MOV AH, 4CH
INT 21H
MAIN ENDP
END MAIN
I hope it helps. I did the basic loop, so you can do the other bits of your code (and I don't know C++, lol). Good luck! It's hard, but kind of fun at the same time (at least for me).

I got this code from the Geeks-for-Geeks site, but there were lots of indentation errors, I changed the code to the following but, when running the code using MASM and DOSBox it's giving no output.
The Output I should get, According to the site I should get 20 but I get nothing, the code is saved as pro.asm, and I'm using DOSBox version 0.74.
For getting the o/p in the DOSBox I did,
mount c c:\8086

Your code looks okay. Your screenshot shows you have only assembled and linked the code but not actually run it. To run it type:
pro.exe
So I have a program in 8086 assembly that allows the user to enter 2 digits, store them in a variable and then print out the number:
data segment
broj db ?
ends
stack segment
dw 128 dup(0)
ends
code segment
mov ax, data
mov ds, ax
mov es, ax
mov ah, 1h
int 21h
sub al, 48d
mov bl, 10d
mul bl
mov broj, al
mov ah, 1h
int 21h
sub al, 48d
add broj, al
mov dl, broj
sub dl, 48d
mov ah, 2h
int 21h
mov ax, 4c00h
int 21h
ends
However whenever I enter a number for example 21 it doesn't give me the number instead it gives me ASCII Code for that value.
Can anyone help?!
However whenever I enter a number for example 21 it doesn't give me the number instead it gives me ASCII Code for that value.
If you feed (input) your program a number that consists of 2 digits, then you'll have to print also 2 digits! Currently your code contains just the one character output function.
First divide the number in broj by 10 giving a quotient (in AL) and a remainder (in AH).
Convert the quotient to character (Add 48) and print it.
Convert the remainder to character (Add 48) and print it.
Example:
mov al, broj
mov ah, 0
mov bl, 10
div bl
add ax, "00"
mov dx, ax
mov ah, 02h
int 21h
mov dl, dh
mov ah, 02h
int 21h
What am I trying to do ?
I want to get a 16-bit number from the user and print It on the console.
What Is the problem ?
Well my code works fine If the number entered Is less than 2600 but the moment I enter 2600 It displays "40" and for 2601 "41" and so on. Shouldn't It display numbers up to 65535 ? Because I am storing the value In the bx register which Is 16-bit and which can store at most 65535. Then why only 2559 ?
My code:
.model small
.data
msg db 10,13,'Enter a 16bit number: $'
newline db 10,13,'$'
.code
main:
mov ax, #data
mov ds, ax
mov cl, 10
mov bx, 0
mov ah, 09h
lea dx, msg
int 21h
call get16bitNum
mov ah, 09h
lea dx, newline
int 21h
mov ax, '$'
push ax
mov ax, bx
store:
div cl
cmp al, 0
mov bh, 0
mov bl, ah
push bx
je continue
mov ah, 0
jmp store
continue:
pop ax
cmp ax, '$'
je ext
mov bx, ax
mov ah, 02h
mov dx, bx
add dx, 48
int 21h
jmp continue
ext:
mov ah, 04ch
int 21h
proc get16bitNum
aggregate:
mov ah, 01h
int 21h
cmp al, 13
je return
mov ah, 0
sub al, 48
mov dx, bx
mov bx, ax
mov ax, dx
mul cl
add bx,ax
jmp aggregate
return:
ret
endp
end main
You don't actually retrieve a 16-bit number!
You keep the desired input in BX, and so you need to multiply the whole of BX by 10. You do this using a word sized multiplication.
proc get16bitNum
aggregate:
mov ah, 01h
int 21h
cmp al, 13
je return
mov ah, 0
sub al, 48 ;AX is 0 to 9
xchg ax, bx ;New digit temporarily in BX
mov cx, 10
mul cx ;Product is in DX:AX, but we won't use DX!
add bx ,ax ;Add new digit
jmp aggregate
return:
ret
You don't display the 16-bit number
The procedure to convert the number into text will definitely need to use the word sized division.
For an excellent explanation on how to do this see this recent post Displaying numbers with DOS. It explains in great detail everything you need to know about converting numbers. It even uses the same technique of pushing some value in the stack (You used a $ character for this) to know where the number ends.
ps. If you find the info in the linked post useful don't hesitate to upvote it. (Of course I hope you find my answer useful too!)
8 bit div produces 8 bit quotient and remainder.
When you divide 2600 by 10 you get an 8 bit quotient, losing higher bits.
You should use 16 bit division.
I have been for some days trying to translate an algorithm to assembly x86, and I did it. However I would like to print the final result that it is saved in "tmp", what instruction can I use? (I'm Spanish so I'm sorry if I say something wrong in English).
This is my algorithm:
tmp = NOT(L0)
tmp = tmp AND L1
tmp = NOT(NOT(tmp) OR NOT(L2))
tmp = NOT(tmp OR NOT(L3))
tmp = NOT(tmp + NOT(L4))
if (tmp == L5)
licence = correct
else
licence = incorrect
And this is it in assembly:
LicenceCorrect PROC
push ebp
mov ebp,esp
push ebx
push ecx
push edx
mov ebx, [ebp+8]
mov edx,[ebx]
mov ecx,edx
not ecx
mov edx,[ebx+4]
and ecx,edx
mov edx,[ebx+8]
not edx
not ecx
or ecx,edx
not ecx
mov edx,[ebx+16]
not edx
or ecx,edx
not ecx
;if
mov edx,[ebx]
cmp ecx,edx
jne cons
mov al,0
jmp next
cons:
mov al,1
next:
pop edx
pop ecx
pop ebx
pop ebp
ret
LicenceCorrect ENDP
END
Next code displays a number in AX (made with EMU8086). What MissPaper must do now is insert your procedure (LicenseCorrect) at the end of next code, and call it after "call dollars", then assign the value to AX (remove "12345").
Here it is for 32 bits:
.model small

I didn't add your procedure because it uses the stack and I don't know what values to push before calling it.
I have an array of nine names:
.model tiny
.data
vardas1 db "Rokas",0ah,'$'
vardas2 db "Tomas",0ah,'$'
vardas3 db "Matas",0ah,'$'
vardas4 db "Domas",0ah,'$'

vardas8 db "Auris",0ah,'$'
vardas9 db "Edvis",0ah,'$'
vardai dw offset vardas1, offset vardas2, offset vardas3, offset vardas4, offset vardas5, offset vardas6, offset vardas7, offset vardas8, offset vardas9
.code
org 100h
I need to read a digit from keyboard, and then I need to print that name. For example I will push 5, and console should write "Augis". BTW, second code block aren't all code, just loop that doesn't work
paieska:
mov dx, offset _comment1 ; Just string name asking user to input digit
mov ah, 9
int 21h
mov j, 00h ; Trying to input the digit from keyboard
mov ah, 01h
mov dl, 0ah
int 21h
mov bx, offset vardai ; Add array "names" to bx register
add bx, cx ; Add cx for indexing
mov dx, [bx] ; Add first array element to dx register
add cx, 2 ; Increasing cx by 2, because I'm using data word not data byte
mov ah, 9 ; Try to print it
int 21h
cmp cx, j ; Try to compare cx (index of array) to mine inputed digit "j"
jne paieska
je end
mov ah, 01h
mov dl, 0ah ;NO NEED FOR THIS - INT21/01 DOES NOT USE DL
int 21h
MOV AH, '1' ; MIN INPUT CHAR
mov bx, offset vardai ; Add array "names" to bx register WELL, ASSIGN ACTUALLY
MOV CX,2 ;NUMBER OF BYTES TO ADD (WORDS, NOT BYTES)
LOOPN:
mov dx, [bx] ; name-pointer array element to dx register
CMP AH,AL ; MATCHING char?
JE PNAME ; YES, PRINT NAME
add bx, cx ; Add cx=2 for next name
inc AH ; next possible character input
CMP AH,'9'+1 ; allowed is '1'..'9'
jne loopn ; in allowed range
; input not 1..9
mov dx, offset errormessage
PNAME:
mov ah, 9 ; Try to print it
int 21h
jmp end
Well, I tried to edit your approach with CAPS, but it became too complicated.
Essentially, you are reading a character from the keyboard using function 01. This character arrives in AL. If all goes well, it should be '1'..'9'. Notice these are the ASCII characters '1'..'9', that is hex 31..39
Next step is to set BX to the start of the table, AH to the minimum character you anticipate and CX to 2 because the table contains words, not bytes.
Now we have a loop. Load X from the table, and check whether AL is equal to AH. If the user input 1, these will be equal, so go print the string.
Otherwise, add 2 to BX to point to the next entry in the table (this could have been done by ADD BX,2 or INC BX INC BX which would mean the MOV CX,2 would be unnecessary - just the way I wrote it...) and increment the '1' in AH to '2'.
The end-condition for the loop is when AH gets incremented from '9' to - well, ':' or '9'+1. If it hasn't reached that end-condition, then run around the loop until all of the values '1'..'9' have been tested. If you haven't got to PNAME yet, then there's an error because the character input wasn't allowed, so point to an error message and then print it.
Now jumping to the end - probably you'd want to terminate the program, so you'd execute
MOV AH,4CH
INT 21H
