1)In this assembly language(High Level Assembler for MVS & VM & VSE)
some of the commands are like this,
BM *+16
B *+14
as i am new to this assembly programmimg i found it very difficult to
understand these statements.
2)similarly the statements
CLI 0(R8),c'-'
CLI 1(R8),c'-'
what does this 0 and 1 means.
The general purpose register R8 points to the string.
3)NUMBER EQU *
MVN EXPONENT+7(1),EXPSIGN
i cant understand these statements also.What does this * means
here?What will happen if the exponent is added with 7(1).
Exponent is defined as
EXPONENT DC D'0'
Please give me the definitions for these statements.
with regards,
Ramesh
