In the broader scope of the assembler documentation, a "Number" is defined as a (Section 1.3.6), which serves as a fundamental building block for Expressions . Expressions themselves are combinations of these terms joined by binary operators. AS6811 Documentaion
may include a plus sign ( + ), though it is not required. Expressions 1.3.5
must be preceded by a minus sign ( - ). The assembler automatically translates these into two’s complement form. In the broader scope of the assembler documentation,
: Specific radix prefixes can be used to designate the base of individual numbers, overriding the default setting for that specific instance. Signage : must be preceded by a minus sign ( - )
According to the AS6811 Documentation , the assembler applies the following logic to numerical expressions:
Section 1.3.5 details how numerical values are processed within the ASxxxx assembler's source programs. It establishes the rules for radix interpretation, prefixing, and numerical representation.
