Study Notes
Input and Output Instructions
- The
ReadInt
instruction reads a 32-bit integer from standard input and returns it in the EAX register. - The
WriteString
instruction writes a null-terminated string to standard output. - The
ReadChar
function reads a character from standard input.
Terminal Operations
- The
SetTextColor
instruction sets the text color. - The
CrLf
function inserts a carriage return and line feed. - The
WaitMsg
instruction waits for a message from the operating system.
Flags Register
- The
Zero
flag indicates whether the result of an operation is zero. - The
Carry
flag is set when an operation results in a carry or borrow. - The
Negative
flag indicates a negative result in the Flags Register.
Functions
- The
Delay
function pauses program execution for a specified time, stored in the ECX register in milliseconds. - The
GetCommandTail
function retrieves the command tail.
Data Structures and Boolean
- The
Push
andPop
operations manipulate a last-in-first-out (LIFO) data structure. - In Boolean,
True
is represented as 1 andFalse
as 0.
Assembly Language
- Ending a label with a double colon (
::
) is a way to define a label in assembly language. - The
WriteDec
instruction requires the value to be written in the EDX register.
