Hi, I have problems with this piece of code:
-----------------------------------------
:
:
MOV ECX, 3 ; EAX=E
CDQ ; ECX=3
IDIV ECX ; EDX=0
IMUL ... ; EAX=4, EDX=2
:
:
-----------------------------------------
I don't know what does the 2nd function (CDQ) do.

Regards

CDQ Convert doubleword (in EAX) to quadword (contained in EDX:EAX) always acts on the EDX:EAX registers, so it does not take an operand. The Quad mantains the sign of the integer contained in EAX.

About CDQ:
If EAX>0x7FFFFFFF, then EDX=0XFFFFFFFF;
If EAX<=0X7FFFFFFF,then EDX=0X0.
That's all.
