- LESSON 2 - BASIC OPERATORS
-
- after we learned how a basic assembly program is built, we will
- learn some basic operators.
-
- MOV destination,source : lets say "mov ax,bx" ax will become the value
- which bx stores.
- ADD destination,count : lets say "add ax,bx" ax will be increased
- according to the value in bx - lets say
- ax = 10, bx = 2 then ax will become 12 (10+2)
- SUB destination,count : lets say "add ax,bx" ax will be decreased
- according to the value in bx - lets say
- ax = 10, bx = 2 then ax will become 8 (10-2)
- INC destination : lets say "inc ax" then ax will be ax+1
- DEC destination : lets say "dec ax" then ax will be ax-1
- AND destination,count : lets say "and ax,bx" then ax will be anded
- with bx, lets say ax = 1, bx = 0 then ax will
- be 0.
- OR destination,count : lets say "or ax,bx" then ax will be ored
- with bx, lets say ax = 1, bx = 0 then ax will
- be 1.
-
- know after we learnt the basic command, what happend about the size of
- those registers well, you can't do one of those between registers
- which aren't not the same size : "mov ax,bl", "mov al,bx", "add cx,cl"
- and so on.
-
- simple example, if we want to preform subtraction, what will do,
- (before each example check if you can do it your self) :
- mov ax,20 ; ax will be 20
- mov cx,10 ; cx will be 10
- sub ax,cx ; ax will be 10 (ax-cx,20-10)
-
- know if we have a number in hex or bin and we want to put it as it is so
- we will have to put "h" after the number for hex and "b" for bin :
-
- mov ax,0a000h ; you must have a zero before a letter in hex
- mov ax,010010b ; a simple number in binary
