Introduction

The purpose of this experiment is to examine the operation of loops and their close equivalent, subroutines.

Procedure

1. How many times does each loop execute?

2. Assemble and link to create LOOPS.EXE. Run the program.

3. Comment out the PUSH AX and POP AX instructions. Re-assemble, link, and run. Comment on any changes. Explain how the changes, if any, occurred.

4. Put the PUSH AX and POP AX instructions back in.

5. Take instructions from inside the loop and place them in a subroutine (or procedure). Thus, the loop will call the subroutine once each pass. Only instructions that directly control the looping should stay.

6. Assemble, link, and run the program. You should get the same results. Email the final ASM file.

7. Assemble and link to create LOOPS2.EXE. Run the program. Explain why the loop pass counter value shown is correct.

8. This file contains errors! Edit the file to correct the errors, then assemble, link, and run. Warning! The program may assemble and link correctly and still have errors that may crash your DOS window. The correct result in AL is 7.

9. Submit your findings.

Downloaded copy of Program LOOPS.ASM: Count the number of passes through a loop.
