Adding Numbers in 8086 Assembly

The project titled 'Addition of Two Numbers and Displaying the Result in Decimal using 8086 Assembly Language' demonstrates basic input, arithmetic, and output operations using DOS interrupts. It accepts two single-digit numbers from the user, converts them from ASCII to integers, adds them, and displays the result in decimal format. The program serves as a foundational example for more complex arithmetic operations in Assembly language.

1. Input
The program accepts two single-digit numbers as input from the user
via the keyboard. This input process is handled using interrupt `INT
21h` with function `01h`, which reads a single character from standard
input (keyboard).

When a character is entered, it is returned in the `AL` register as an


ASCII value. To convert this ASCII character to its corresponding
numerical digit, the program subtracts the ASCII code of `'0'` (which is
48 in decimal) from the character.

For example, if the user enters the character '6', the ASCII value of '6' is
54. Subtracting '0' (48) gives 6, which is the actual integer value used in
the calculation.

The program performs this input process twice to read two digits. These
digits are then added together to produce the final result, which is
printed in decimal format.

Example Inputs:

- First Digit: 6

- Second Digit: 7
2. Description
This project demonstrates how to perform basic input, arithmetic, and
output operations in 8086 Assembly Language using DOS interrupts.

The key operations include:


- Prompting the user to enter two digits.
- Reading and converting ASCII input into integer values.
- Performing the addition operation.
- Converting the result back to a string in decimal format.
- Displaying the result on the screen.

The result is shown in human-readable decimal format, not hexadecimal


or raw binary.

To achieve this, the program uses:


- INT 21h for input and output operations.
- ASCII conversion via addition and subtraction of '0'.
- Stack-based technique to convert multi-digit numbers into decimal
format using division by 10.

This code can serve as a foundation for more complex arithmetic or


input/output logic in Assembly language.
