Hello,
I was wondering if there's a way to load a constant FP to st0. The following code doesn't work:

Code:

fld 123.456

thanks

Code:

value dd 123.456 ;or DQ/DT if you want more precision.
...
fld [value]

if you REALLY want to have it in one place, and 32bit precision is enough, easiest you can do is probably something like

Code:

push dword 123.456   ;FASM supports this
fld [esp]    ;FLD from stack
add esp, 4   ;remove value from stack

but i would suggest revolution's version.

One thing to note with vid's suggestion is that you need a type override.

Code:

push dword 123.456
fld dword [esp]    ;add the operand size override
add esp, 4
