hi guys, I just wanna learn how to convert from ASCII character to the value e.g. input X then the output is 10 etc.

anyone know please help

thanks :lol:

xor ah,ah
int 16h ;read in ascii character ( in range '0' - '9' ) into al
sub al, 48 ;convert ascii character to integer in range 0-9

thanks for your reply

but it too advance for me, it is posible show me in CPU Sim?

thanks so much

It's not that complicated. Ascii characters are represented by numbers, so that, for example:

mov al, 'A' ;actually moves the number 65 into al, because that's its ascii code
mov al, 'B' ;actually moves the number 66 into al
mov al, C' ;moves 67 into al, and so on.

In the case of the numerals it's:

mov al, '0' ;moves the number 48 into al
mov al, '1' ;moves the number 49 into al
mov al, '2' ;moves the number 50 into al
mov al, '3' ;moves the number 51 into al

So if you subtract 48 from any of those four, you get 0, 1, 2 and 3 respectively - the conversion you want.

use ctoi function

thanks so much for your help
