Post by tinman47 »

Yo,its me again. B) You all know that I'm learning Assembly,right?
Well I'm having a few problems. :blah: I need answers to the following
questions:

1.Whats a register,I look at examples of source codes and I keep
seeing ax,bx,eax.I mean I do know what all the instructions
do in FASM,its just that I don't know what registers are suppose to
do.I they like data reserves or something?What are they?

2.I looked at the source code of MiniPad when I saw the following
code in its source file:

menu_item______ = 5.

What is that??? A label or something.

3.How do I program in Assembler graphically.

1. A register is a processor register. It's pretty much just a chunk of memory used to proccess frequent tasks... I think

2. No clue

3. What do you mean?

For the third question,I meant to display your results,Like when you move a register to register,I want to display a pop-up window saying Its been moved.

Maybe answerring all your endless questions would take too much time.
And maybe not much people are eager to post a 20000 words answer.

There exist specific forums for such questions you know, or you obviously don't seem to know.
