Dr. Patt, hi, i have a question about the project. 1. if there is an error, is the file output still required? in case that the error is toward the end of code. I assume you are asking what the Assembler that you write is supposed to output if it detects an error in your assembly language program. Answer: If there is an error, the Assembler only needs to generate the correct exit code. 2. if there are more than one error, show both error? or the first error occured? You can't show both errors, since the assembler is generating only one exit code. Any of the correct error codes are acceptable. Yale Patt <>
