; 4_sample.

asm

name "flags"

org 100h

; this sample shows how cmp instruction sets the flags.

; usually cmp instruction is followed by any relative


; jump instruction such as: je, ja, jl, jae...

; it is recommended to click "flags" and "analyze"


; for better visual expirience before stepping through this code.

; (signed/unsigned)
; 4 is equal to 4
mov ah, 4
mov al, 4
cmp ah, al
nop

; (signed/unsigned)
; 4 is above and greater then 3
mov ah, 4
mov al, 3
cmp ah, al
nop

; -5 = 251 = 0fbh

; (signed)
; 1 is greater then -5
mov ah, 1
mov al, -5
cmp ah, al
nop

; (unsigned)
; 1 is below 251
mov ah, 1
mov al, 251
cmp ah, al
nop

; (signed)
; -3 is less then -2
mov ah, -3
mov al, -2
cmp ah, al
nop

; (signed)
; -2 is greater then -3
mov ah, -2
mov al, -3
cmp ah, al
nop

; (unsigned)
; 255 is above 1
mov ah, 255
mov al, 1
cmp ah, al
nop

; now a little game:


game: mov dx, offset msg1
mov ah, 9
int 21h

; read character in al:


mov ah, 1
int 21h

cmp al, '0'


jb stop

cmp al, '9'


ja stop

cmp al, '5'


jb below
ja above
mov dx, offset equal_5
jmp print
below: mov dx, offset below_5
jmp print
above: mov dx, offset above_5
print: mov ah, 9
int 21h
jmp game ; loop.

stop: ret ; stop

msg1 db "enter a number or any other character to exit: $"


equal_5 db " is five! (equal)", 0Dh,0Ah, "$"
below_5 db " is below five!" , 0Dh,0Ah, "$"
above_5 db " is above five!" , 0Dh,0Ah, "$"
