I am new in assembly , I am using emu8086
I was trying to print two elements of an array , but I could not print the second element
Here is my code:
.MODEL SMALL
.STACK 100H
.DATA
MSG DB 'HI','GOOD$'
.CODE
MAIN PROC
MOV AX,@DATA
MOV DS,AX
MOV AH,2
MOV DL,MSG
INT 21H
MOV AH,2
MOV DL,MSG+1
INT 21H
MOV AH,4CH
INT 21H
MAIN ENDP
END MAIN
at output hi is printed , good is not printed . please correct me how can print the second element.
If all you want to do is print "HIGOOD" then write:
MOV AH,2
MOV DL,MSG
INT 21H
MOV DL,MSG+1
INT 21H
MOV DL,MSG+2
INT 21H
MOV DL,MSG+3
INT 21H
MOV DL,MSG+4
INT 21H
MOV DL,MSG+5
INT 21H
A far better approach is to "$"-terminate both strings like MSG DB 'HI$','GOOD$'
and then use the string output function 09h:
MSG DB 'HI$','GOOD$'
...
mov ah, 09h
mov dx, offset MSG
int 21h
mov dx, offset MSG+3
int 21h
Even better is to assign separate labels to your strings:
MSG1 DB 'HI$'
MSG2 DB 'GOOD$'
...
mov ah, 09h
mov dx, offset MSG1
int 21h
mov dx, offset MSG2
int 21h
