Procedure which divides a 32-bit number by a 16-bit number, Computer Engineering

Assignment Help:

Write a procedure which divides a 32-bit number by a 16-bit number. The procedure must be general which is it's defined in one module and can be called from another assembly module.

; REGISTERS   : Uses CS, DS, SS, AX, SP, BX, CX

; PROCEDURES: Far Procedure SMART_DIV

DATA_SEG SEGMENT   WORD PUBLIC

     DIVIDEND DW 2345h, 89AB; Dividend = 

    ; 89AB2345H

     DIVISOR DW 5678H; 16-bit divisor

     MESSAGE DB 'INVALID DIVIDE', '$'

DATA_SEG ENDS    

 

MORE_DATA   SEGMENT     WORD

                                 QUOTIENT   DW   2 DUP (0)

                                 REMAINDER   DW      0 

MORE_DATA ENDS

STACK_SEG   SEGMENT   STACK

                                 DW   100 DUP (0); Stack of 100 words

                                 TOP - STACK   LABEL WORD; top of stack pointer

STACK_SEG   ENDS

PUBLIC       DIVISOR

PROCEDURES SEGMENT   PUBLIC                    ; SMART_DIVis declared as an

EXTRN SMART_DIV: FAR                                    ; external label in procedure 

                                                                                    ; Segment of type FAR

PROCEDURES ENDS

; declare the code segment as PUBLIC so that it can be merged with other PUBLIC

; Segments

CODE_SEG SEGMENT WORD   PUBLIC

            ASSUME CS: CODE, DS: DATA_SEG, SS: STACK SEG

            START:  MOV AX, DATA_SEG; Initialize data segment

            MOV DS, AX   ; using AX register

            MOV AX, STACK_SEG   ; Initialize stack segment

            MOV SS, AX; using AX register

            MOV SP, OFFSET TOP_STACK; Initialize stack pointer

            MOV AX, DIVIDEND   ; Load low word of

                                                ; Dividend

            MOV   DX DIVIDEND + 2; Load high word of

                                                ; Dividend

            MOV CX, DIVISOR   ; Load divisor

            CALL SMART_DIV   

; This procedure returns Quotient in the DX: AX pair and Remainder in CX register. 

; Carry bit is set if result is invalid.

                                 JNC SAVE_ALL; IF carry = 0, result valid

                                 JMP STOP          ; ELSE carry set, don't

                                                             ; save result

                                 ASSUME DS: MORE_DATA   ; Change data segment

SAVE_ALL:  PUSH DS   ; Save old DS 

MOV BX, MORE_DATA          ; Load new data segment

MOV DS, BX                              ; register

MOV QUOTIENT, AX              ; Store low word of

                                                     ; Quotient

MOV QUOTIENT + 2, DX   ; Store high word of

                                                     ; Quotient

MOV REMAINDER, CX   ; Store remainder

ASSUME DS: DATA_SEG  

POP   DS; Restore initial DS

JMP ENDING

STOP:                       MOV DL, OFFSET MESSAGE

                                 MOV AX, AH 09H

                                 INT   21H  

ENDING:   NOP

CODE_SEG ENDS

                                 END START
