Title: DI and SI
Post by: buli on April 24, 2016, 06:50:01 PM
I am confused that DI and SI can point to the same address
below it's my code

.MODEL SMALL
.STACK
.DATA
   NUM1 DB 10,11,12,14
.CODE
MAIN:
    MOV AX,@DATA
    MOV DS,AX
    MOV DI,OFFSET NUM1
    MOV SI,OFFSET NUM1
    MOV DL,[DI]
    ADD DL,30H
    MOV AH,02H
    INT 21H
    MOV DL,[SI]
    ADD DL,30H
    MOV AH,02H
    INT 21H
    MOV AH,4CH
    INT 21H
END MAIN

I used the debug tool and saw that DI and SI are shifted into same address,when i print the content they are same!! But i know that DI belongs to ES and SI belongs to DS. But OFFSET just calculate the variable's offset. Why they can print the same content?
