This repository houses a word game program developed in x86_64 NASM as a coursework project for the Computer Architecture course at St. Petersburg Polytechnic University. The program challenges players to create words from a specified string, ensuring they are valid based on the characters and exist in a provided dictionary.
coursework.nasm: The main NASM source code file containing the implementation of the word game.macro.nasm: An external file providing macro and constant definitions used in the main program.
The word game operates as follows:
-
Players take turns entering a word, adhering to the following rules:
- The word must be composed of characters from the given source string.
- The word must exist in the dictionary.
-
The game ends when a player enters an incorrect word, and the program prints a corresponding message.
Execute the ./run.sh script bundled with the source code.
Follow the on-screen prompts to enter words and play the game.
section .rodata: Contains read-only data such as rules, prompts, source string, dictionary, and messages.section .bss: Reserves space for variables like user input buffer.section .text: The main program logic, including the game loop and interaction with C library functions.
Ensure NASM and a compatible linker are installed on your system. The provided compilation commands assume a Linux (//WSL) environment.
- Implement the conversion of user input to lowercase characters.
- Dictionary expansion.
