microprocessor 8086 HELP

Look up prime number _sieve_. That should help, though you don't need to go that far. Also, google will hand a version to you on a silver platter. You don't need us. And if you already know what a prime number is and you have even the most basic rudiments of programming down, it isn't hard to write a short routine. Honestly, it's very, very easy.

What class are you taking?

We don't usually do your homework problems here.

WTF do you mean by a 'microprocessor 8086' anyway ? Does anyone still use those ? Microprocessors don't have keyborards and monitors, those are computers and I can't even recal when an 8086 was last used in a serious one, way back in the 1980s somewhere.

Looks like you shouldn't have been asleep in class.

I've done this before (I used turboC)

just need to do it piecewise

hint: there's no point in packing 8 cells into a byte when it costs so much to addresse the individual bytes.

that'll scare him off!
