Can we use an equated value as operand for an MVC
instruction? Reason for the same
Answer Posted / ajay tyagiom
Yes, we can but it is good practice to use MVI instruction
for equated value because it has only one byte and
generally assembler used for fast processing and MVI
instruction takes lesser time than MVC instruction in
execution.

How do you round the addition or subtraction of two numbers in assembler?
In the house keeping section of an MVS assembly language program, like the one below STM R14,R12,12(R13) BASR R12,R0 USING *,R12,R11 LA R11,2048 LA R11,2048(R11,R12) .... .... 1. What if BASR R12,R0 IS NOT PRECEDE USING *,R12,R11? 2. USING (base address), REGISTER does USING directive says assembler to treat particular Register as a base register with the mentioned base address..in the above case * i.e current location counter..well if that is the case why we need BASR R12,R0 ? 3. What if I write like STM R14,R12,12(R13) BASR R12,R0 LA R11,2048 LA R11,2048(R11,R12) USING *,R12,R11 there is no address resolution being calculated in both LA statements so is it a right way to set Base register?..will there be any issues with Domain regarding R11 and R12?
