About this assignmet

Requirements:

• Implement a simple calculator program in assembly language that supports basic arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division).
• Take user input for two operands and the desired operation.
• Display the result of the calculation.
• Implement error handling for invalid input.

Restrictions:

• Use only basic arithmetic instructions available in the chosen assembly language.
• Avoid using high-level constructs; stick to low-level operations.
• Minimize the use of external libraries or system calls.

Submission Guidelines:

• Submit the assembly source code along with any necessary files for building and running the program.
• Include a README file explaining how to assemble and run the calculator program.
• Provide a brief report discussing the challenges faced during implementation and how they were addressed.
