Demonstration Cartridge
Along with the Assembly Language Development and Execution ROMs, a tape cartridge has
been provided to demonstrate the capabilities of the assembly language system. This
Demonstration Cartridge (HP part number 11141-10154) is specifically intended to -
• Graphically display the kind of speed increases which can be obtained by using assembly
language subprograms for certain types of applications.
• Provide a number of programs which can serve as examples of how to write assembly
language sUbprograms.

• Provide a set of definitions for some of the special function keys so that those keys can be
used as typing aids.
Using the Tape
To run any of the demonstration programs, execute the statement-
A set of instructions is displayed which can then be followed interactively.
Typing Aids
The starting and final cursor positions of the typing aids were chosen with assembly listings in
mind. The intent in selecting these positions was to make it easy to enter source as it would
appear when listed within an assembly listing.
The following table gives, for each key; the typing aid, the position where the typing aid begins,
and the position where the cursor will finally reside. Because some typing aids end with a blank,
the triangle
(a)
has been chosen to indicate the end of the typing aid. All blanks after the start of
the typing aid, and before the triangle, will appear when the key is pressed.
