Example push 5 push 3 push 10 pop ax // ax = 10 pop ax // ax = 3 pop ax // ax = 5 Passing Parameters The stack is especially useful for passing data to subroutines. text/html 2011-09-25T22:29:53-04:00 alexayers http://www.ayerslabs.com/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=int16&rev=1317004193&do=diff Interrupt 16 provides simple math functionality. This interrupt should be used when you need to perform fast math operations.

XVM2 executes a bytecode language generated by the VASM assembler which allows a program compiled on any platform to run on any platform where XVM2 has been ported. Currently XVM2 is being targeted for Windows, OSX, and Linux. text/html 2011-04-09T07:44:50-04:00 alexayers http://www.ayerslabs.com/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=dev-wiki&rev=1302349490&do=diff Three strategic initiatives currently under development.

All non-engine code is written in {high-level}.
