Question

I have a homework on this, the purpose of the homework is to calculate in assembly (emu8086) this f(x)=x^2+2x-3. The problem is when I divide the result in order to print it I get a divide overflow error and I don't know why or how to fix it. Can anyone help?

Solution

This looks incorrect:

MOV AH,01h
INT 21h

SUB AH,30h
MOV x_number,AH

Interrupt 21h/AH=01h returns the character in AL, not in AH.
