Updating the Irvine16 Library

Last Update: 6/1/2006

The Irvine16 library source code is designed to be used along with Assembly Language for Intel-Based Computers, 5/e, by Kip R. Irvine.

You may modify the source code files named Irvine16.asm and floatio.asm under the following conditions:

  • You do not remove Irvine's name and credits from the source code files.
  • The files are for private use only, and may not be copied, used, or included in any other published computer programming textbook.

Make a backup of the source file you plan to modify, in case you want to undo the changes!

Open the Irvine32.asm file or the floatio.asm file, using Visual Studio or Visual C++ 2005 Express. Modify it as you wish, and save the file.
