Top-level script environment in Python (__main__)
A module object is characterized by various attributes. Attribute names are prefixed and post-fixed by double underscore __. The most important attribute of module is __name__. When Python is running as a top level executable code, i.e. when read from standard input, a script, or from an interactive prompt the __name__ attribute is set to '__main__'.>>> __name__ '__main__'From within a script also, we find a value of __name__ attribute is set to '__main__'. Execute the following script.'module docstring' print ('name of module:', __name__)Outputname of module: __main__However, for an imported module this attribute is set to name of the Python script. ...
Read MoreBuilt-in objects in Python (builtins)
The builtins module is automatically loaded every time Python interpreter starts, either as a top level execution environment or as interactive session. The Object class, which happens to be the base class for all Python objects, is defined in this module. All built-in data type classes such as numbers, string, list etc are defined in this module. The BaseException class, as well as all built-in exceptions, are also defined in it. Further, all built-in functions are also defined in the built-ins module.Since this module is imported in the current session automatically, normally it is not imported explicitly. All the built-in ...
Read MoreConditional call instructions in 8085 Microprocessor
In 8085 Instruction set, depending upon one of the flag bit values (excluding AC flag bit), the conditional call instructions will branch to a subroutine. The branch takes place based on the value of Cy flag, Z flag, P flag, or S flag. There is no call instruction based on the value of AC(Auxiliary Carry) flag bit. This is because generally, no one is interested in branching to a subroutine based on this flag bit value. The conditional call instructions are 3 Bytes in length, 1 Byte for the opcode, and another 2 Bytes for the subroutine address i.e.low-order Byte ...
Read MoreCall if carry (CC) in 8085 Microprocessor
In 8085 Instruction set, CC is a mnemonic, which stands for “Call if Carry”. This instruction is used to branch to the subroutine whose 16-bit address is provided in the instruction, only if Cy flag value is 1. If Cy flag value is 0, program flow continues in the main program sequentially. It is a3-Byte instruction.Mnemonics, OperadOpcode(in HEX)BytesCC LabelDC3Let us consider the following sample code for a better explanation –AddressHex CodesMnemonicComment200031LXI SP, 5000HSP ← 5000H.Initializing the SP200100Low order Byte of the address200250High order Byte of the address20033EMVI A, 40HA ← 40H, Initializing the Accumulator with initial value 40H20044040H as operand200506MVI ...

In 8085 Instruction set, RC is a mnemonic, which stands for “Return if Carry”. This instruction is used to return to the main program, only if Cy flag value is 1.

Read More8085 Program to Check the fourth bit of a byte
In this program, we will see how to check the 4th bit of an 8-bit number.Problem StatementWrite 8085 Assembly language program to check whether the fourth bit of a byte is 0 or 1.When it is 0, store 00H at any specified location, and when it is 1, store FFH at the specified location.DiscussionWe are considering the 8-bit number, and storing 00H or FFH by checking the 4th bit on the number from left. The logic behind it is very simple. We are just performing bit-wise and operation on the given data with 08H. If the result is non-zero, then the 4th ...
Read MoreHow can management ensure working women's safety on their premises?
Women in today’s world are taking major positions in different sectors and are performing extraordinarily well in their work roles. The contribution of women is extremely crucial for the inclusive economic development of the country. The principle of Gender Equality is enshrined in our constitution and the feminist movement in the late 1970s strengthened the concept. If we want women to succeed in their work lives, it is important to create a safe atmosphere for a woman to give a holistic contribution. Let's know how:Infrastructure FacilitiesIt is extremely important to keep the infrastructure facilities extremely strong in any workplace. Proper ...
Read More8085 Program to Multiply two numbers of size 8 bits
In this program, we will see how to multiply two 8-bit numbers using 8085 microprocessor.Problem StatementWrite 8085 Assembly language program to multiply two 8-bit numbers stored in a memory location and store the 16-bit results into the memory.DiscussionThe 8085 has no multiplication operation. To get the result of multiplication, we should use the repetitive addition method. After multiplying two 8-bit numbers it may generate 1-byte or 2-byte numbers, so we are using two registers to hold the result.We are saving the data at location 8000H and 8001H. The result is storing at location 8050H and 8051H.InputAddressData......8000DC8001AC......Flow DiagramProgramAddressHEX CodesLabelsMnemonicsCommentsF00021, 00, 80LXI H, ...
