memory location 9AB0 H. You initially switched on the micro
processor, Now what is the value in PC? Is it 0000H if not
what is that address? And why that address? how to load the
address where I wrote the code?
2) If during the execution of the Code we gave a Reset to
8085 where does the execution Jumps to? Does the program
return back to its normal execution after reset?
