I wrote this code, in assembly, to calculate (4*7)+5, but I get these errors:




(18) wrong parameters: MOV ax,m1

(18) operands do not match: 16 bit register and 8 bit address.




 .MODEL SMALL
.stack 100h
.data
m1 DB 4
m2 DB 7
m3 DB 5
m4 DB ?
.code
main PROC
 mov ax,@data
 mov ds,ax
 mov ax,m1
 mul ax,m2
 add ax,m3
 mov m4,ax 

 BEGIN ENDP
 END main

    @movcmpret: no it won't. This is x86 with MASM-like syntax. The error is that symbol names magically get a size associated with them when declared that way, and mov ax, m1 is doing a word load from a byte "variable", and the assembler stops you from making that mistake. One solution is to use dw and make everything a word, or to use byte registers (al)

Because all of the numbers involved 4,7,5 are very small, you get by with data definitions using db.
But this also means that the calculations should be byte-sized.



Write this instead:



mov al, m1
mul m2 ;Leaves m1 * m2 in AX (4*7=28 so AL=28 and AH=0)
add al, m3
mov m4, al


If you use a byte-sized operand (m2) with the mul instruction then AL is multiplied with it and the double-length product is stored in AX.
