Is it possible to make like an array in FASM? The reason why I have this question in the OS construction is I want to put the keyboard layout in an array in FB, and then have my input interrupt store the scancode in AL, and then go to AL place in the array, where the actual character would be, if that makes any sense whatsoever.

C pseudo-code:

char myarray[KBD_SIZE] = {0, 27, "1", "2", "3"...};

printf(myarray[scancode]);

...

myarray db 0, 27, "1", "2", "3"

Umm... and I'd access each individual byte by doing "myarray + n", right?

Since it's a byte array yes, (symbol+elementNumber) is enough but for general accessing is (symbol+elementNumber*sizeOfElement).

You could do something like this pseudo code

I think I get it, thanks... but why copy al to scan code?

So you can put it in ah at the end of the function, like this

Oh, I see now... thanks!

Hello rhyno_dagreat,

This downloadable booklet has [one] or [two] things on arrays:

Hey, thanks Niels! I believe I've read some of that book before, and it helped me a little while ago. I knew arrays were groups of variables one after another in memory, but I didn't know you could access 'em the way they are said to be able to be accessed in these other languages (if what I said makes any sense ) but thank you again for the link! I had to reformat my HD and install Windows again, so I'm gonna download that again.
