Okay so I based my codes from the turbo assembler manual that we have...i tried to swap registers and it worked only for the inverse subtraction example 1-2= -1...now my problem in this code is that when the first number is greater than the second number, i cannot get the correct answer
;Subtract
.MODEL Small
.STACK 100h
.DATA
Start DB 13,10,'Subtract 2 numbers!$'
FOne DB 13,10,'Enter first set number1: $'
FTwo DB 13,10,'Enter first set number2: $'
Diff1 DB 13,10,'Difference is: $'
.CODE
mov ax,@data
mov ds,ax
mov dx,OFFSET Start
mov ah,09h
int 21h
mov dx, OFFSET FOne
mov ah,09h

int 21h
MOV BL,AL
AND BL,0Fh
mov dx, OFFSET FTwo
mov ah,09h
int 21h
mov ah,01h
int 21h
AND AL,0Fh
compare:
cmp AL,BL
jge reverse
jnz normal
normal:

SUB BL,AL

OR AX,3030h
MOV BX,AX
mov dx,OFFSET Diff1

mov dl,Bh
mov ah,02h

mov dl,Al
int 21h
mov ah,02h
jmp exit
reverse:
mov ah,00h
SUB AL,BL

OR AX,3030h
MOV BX,AX
mov dx,OFFSET Diff1

mov ah,02h

jmp exit
exit:
mov ah,4ch
int 21h
END
ok so i guess i got it :D
