Here we will write an 8086 assembly language program to input a 5 digit number from the keyboard and display the sum of the digits. This program can be broken into 2 main sections.

  1. Read a 5 digit number with validation to check if the entered character is numeric. If the entered character is valid add to a dw sum
  2. Convert the numeric sum into ASCII so that it can be displayed

Code To calculate the sum of 5 digit number

    int 21h     ; dos interrupt 21h
 
    mov sum,0
    mov cx,5    ; cx is set to 5 so that it loops 5 times to enter 5 digits of the number
