Program that starts with an initially undefined byte array of maximum 100, and lets the user insert single characters into the array......

Posted By: Easy Tutor     Category: Assembly Language     Views: 3776

An AL Program that starts with an initially undefined byte array of maximum 100, and lets the user insert single characters into the array in such a way that the array is always sorted in ascending order. The program should print a question mark, let the user to enter a character, and display the array with the new character inserted. Input ends when the user hits the ESC key. Duplicate characters should be ignored.
