    The document provides information about using the DEBUG program in DOS to write and debug assembly language programs. It includes: 1. An overview of the DEBUG program and how to start it from the DOS prompt. 2. A table listing the main DEBUG commands for examining registers, manipulating memory contents, and coding/running programs. 3. Descriptions and examples of specific DEBUG commands like R to view registers, D/E/F to view and alter memory, A/U to assemble and disassemble code, G to run programs, and T to step through execution.

    DEBUG PROGRAMMING

    I- Objective To study the debug program that use to write and execute assembly language programs.

    II-Theory :
    DEBUG is a program included in the MS-DOS operating system that allows the programmer to monitor a
    program's execution closely for debugging purpose.
    To begin the program works at first go to MS-DOS prompt and type the following: C:
    \ DEBUG ↲ and press enter.
    know the DEBUG program is ready to execute its commands. The DEBUG command are shown in table
    below.

    Table ( 1) the debug command.

    Table # 1

    The DEBUG commands are :


    1-Examining and Altering the Contents of Registers ( R COMMAND)
    R [ register name ] Examples:

    R AX ↲ ; To display the contain of register AX

    R ↲ ; To display the contents of all system register.


    R F ↲ ; To display the contents of flags register.

    2- Data Manipulation in Debug


    There are 3 DEBUG commands that are used to Examine or Alter the contents of Memory
    2a- D [ Address ] The Dump command display contents of memory to the screen
    2b- E[address][list] The Enter command examines/Alters the contents of memory
    2c- F[starting address ] [ending address ] [ list ] The
    Fill command fills a block of memory with data
    Examples:
    D↲ To display the contain of 128 consecutive bytes starting at the current code segment
    and offset ( CS:0100 )
    D 1333:0200 ↲ To display the contain of 128 consecutive bytes starting at (1333:0200 )

    D DS:0200 0204 ↲ To study the contents of memory location start at ( DS:0200 to


    (DS:0204 )
    E [ address ] [ list ]
    E DS:0100 FF FF FF FF FF ↲ To enter a list of FF data to memory location start at
    DS:0100
    E DS:0100 ↲
    1342:0100 FF_ To show the old memory location DS:0100 and allow to change it
    F [starting address ] [ending address ] [ list ]
    F 0100 011F 22 ↲ To cause the memory location start with 0100 – 011F to be filled
    with data 22.
    3- Coding and Running Programs in DEBUG
    3a- ASSEMBLY command A
    A [starting address ] Assembling the instructions with assembly command
    A CS:0100 ↲
    1342:0100 _ Will allow the programmer to enter the assembly language program starting at
    CS:0100

    3b- -UMASSEMBLED command U U [starting


    address ] [ending address ]
    U[starting address][L number of bytes]
    To display the machine code in memory along with their equivalent Assembly language
    instructions.

    U CS:0100 0110 ↲ Will display the un assembly instruction stored in location CS:0100 to 0110
    U CS:0100 ↲ Will display the un assembly instruction stored in location CS:0100 with 32 bytes
    3c- GO command G To execute the instructions found between the two given addresses

    G =[starting address] [ stop address]


    G= CS:0200 0217 ↲
    The instructions which have been stored at memory locations CS: 0200 to CS: 0217 will be executed. If no
    addresses are given, DEBUG begins executing instructions at CS:IP until a breakpoint is reached.

    3d- TRACE command T


    To trace through the execution of your programs one or more instructions at a time to verify the effect of the
    programs on register and/or data
    T =[starting address] [ number]
    T= CS:0100 ↲ The instruction in location CS:0100 will be executed.
    T ↲ The instruction in current value of (CS:IP) will be traced until termination of the program.
