an 8085 assembly language program to find the factorial of a number

Question

i want to find factorial a number which i take memory first.(intel 8085)

edit: i'm beginner. i don't know how to write it's assembly codes.

pseudo code:

input n
fact = 1
loop:
..multiply fact by n
..decrement n
..test n
..jump if not zero to loop
output fact

Answer 1

In the first place, you'd better learn how to write 8085 if you expect to use it. Assembler, especially for old 8-bit microprocessors, is not something you can just take canned software and patch in.

In the second place, exactly what are you using for numbers? The 8085 has an 8-bit bus and can use registers as 16 bits. If you're limited to 16-bit numbers, you can use a lookup table, as you can't represent 9! anyway.

In the third place, if you're doing it the algorithmic way, you might want to first look into what you're using for multiplication. The 8085 does not have on-chip multiplication. (I once won a contest for multiple-precision multiplication and division using the Z80, which had some features the 8085 didn't have. In particular, I was able to use the alternate register bank to do some useful stuff.)

Answer 2

with an intel 8085 processor, taking an 8 bit number, in this case 5, i can write this:

mvi b,05
mov c,b
dcr b
l1: mov d,b
mvi a,00
l2: add c
dcr d
jnz l2
mov c,a
dcr b
jnz l1
hlt

the factorial of 5 would be then 78 in hex. the logic is.. 5!= 5x4x3x2x1

so add 5 four times, the result (i.e 20) add three times and so on... (5+5+5+5), (20+20+20), (60+60) and convert 120 to hex ...

Answer 3

With this program, you can find factorial of an 8 bit number whose answer doesn't exceed 24bits! The input is given in the address location #2070 and output is obtained is in 2 memory locations in the order #2074 #2073 #2072

MVI B, 07h
LXI H, 0007h
LXI D, 0007h
DCR B

LOOP1:
    MOV C, B
    LXI H, 0

LOOP:
    DAD D
    DCR C
    JNZ LOOP

MOV E, L

This may help you. This is for 7!.

Answer 5

This code will find the factorial of 9. You can find factorial of any number upto 9 by changing the value in DB.
