LinkedList-in-asm8086

Linked List data structure implemented in Assembly 8086

You can read the basic explanation from PoulDev/LinkedList-in-C

Allocating a new value (object) to memory

the FIND_AVAIBLE_MEMORY procedure searches for two adjacent memory cells that are empty ( that I'll call object ), the first one will be used to store the value, and in the second one will be stored the pointer to the next object

Linking a new value

LINK_VALUE works by itering all the objects to find the last one, that can be recognized because it has 0xFF as the value for the pointer. At that point it writes the new object memory address over the old value ( that was 0xFF )

Itering the Linked List

How does it iters through the linked list? It starts from the first object and it reads his pointer value. If the pointer value is 0xFF it stops, otherwise it read the pointer value of the pointed object and continues the check on that new object this continues until it reach one object that has 0xFF as the pointer

Object Structure:

Value	Pointer
1337	0xFF
