Here is my code

.section .data

 values:
      .int  0

array_end:
      .equ ARRAY_SIZE, array_end - values

array_fmt:
      .asciz "  %d"

usort_str:
      .asciz "unsorted array:"

sort_str:
      .asciz "sorted array:"

newline:
      .asciz "\n"

maxvalue:
	.int 1000

format:
	.asciz "%d"

message:
	.asciz "Please enter a maximum size for the array to be sorted."
output:
	.asciz "The length is '%d' \n"

val_fmt:
	.asciz " %d"

.section .bss
	.comm buffer, 4000
	
.section .text
.globl main

      movl  0, %ebx
      int   $0x80

	
	
	
	push $0
	call exit

This program does:
ask user what size of array to build
request int values and enter them into array until array is of correct size
sort values using selection sort

The sort works perfectly but I am having problems with building the array.

As it stands, it seems like the values I'm using scanf to read into the array are overwritting the last value input so if I enter: 1, 2, 3, 4
the array only contains 4.
I know I have to offset the array by 4 bytes each time I want to write to it, but I have no idea how to do this.
Closer look at my array building loop is

someLoop:
	cmpl $0, %ecx
	je endLoop

	pushl $values
	pushl $val_fmt
	call scanf
	addl $8, %esp
	sub $1, %ecx
	jmp someLoop
	movl $0, %ecx

I'm looking through every resource I have but can't find how to build arrays from user input so ANY help or suggestions would go a long way.

Thank you for your time
