First off, I know this is homework, and I don't expect anyone to do everything for me. Just a simple explanation is more than enough. The first project I am taking in a number in seconds that the user enters and converting it to hours, minutes, and seconds, but I get a scalar error. I get the expecting scalar type at line 38- if x >= 3600 and line 51 if x < 3600. Additionally, at line 45 - if ah < 60
I get illegal use of register; how would I put the remainder from ah and not get that error?
In the second project, I am not getting any errors or anything, but when I run the program, I get a bunch of random characters.
