21 Write a program in assembly language that calculates the square of six by adding six to the accumulator six times?
[org 0x0100] mov ax,6 ; load first number in ax add ax,6 ; accumulate sum add ax,6 add ax,6 add ax,6 add ax,6 mov ax, 0x4c00 ; terminate program int 0x21 ------ Another way: [org 0x0100] ; This is a .com file, not an .exe. DOS .com files start at 100h (256 decimal), have no stack segment, are no larger than 64k, and the code and data segments must be the same. xor ax, ax ;zero register mov cx, 6 ;put 6 in counter register for loop instruction start: add ax,6 ; accumulate sum loop start ; decrements cx and serves as conditional jump to start label. mov ax, 0x4c00 ; terminate program int 0x21 (I rarely terminated DOS programs this way using the DOS termination service (int 21h, ah=4ch). Usually, terminating with RetN was enough.)
Can arithmetic be performed in the A register?
On platforms with specialized registers, the A register is usually an accumulator, whose primary function is to store the results (and possibly provide a parameter of) an arithmetic function. In Intel code, for example, add ax,bx adds the contents of ax and bx together, and stores the sum in ax. RISC processors generally do not have specialized registers in this sense, and instead name most their registers generically (e.g. r0, r1, r2...). This allows any general register to perform any general function, including arithmetic. For specific chip dialects, please refer to that chipset's programming manual.

Why ax register must be used in multiplication and division?
bcz multiplication and division done in 16bit operation so we must ve to use pair of reg so we ve to use ax reg ....... thats why final value store in a and b pair of reg....

How many register are located in 8088microprocessor?
there are 14 registers in 8088 micro processor. All the 14 are 16 bit registers. They are4 segment registers viz - code segment register, stack segment register, data segment register, extra segment register.general registers are - accumulator register i.e. AX, base register i.e. BX, count register i.e. CX, data register i.e. DX and stack pointer (SP), base pointer (BP).index registers are - source index(SI), destination index(DI),and the other registers are instruction pointer and flags register.
