Hey guys I have to analyse a short program for school and the only keyword i cannot find a definition for if ORG. What does this do in assembly code??
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

ORG declares the starting address where the code will be located in memory.

Are u sure it's a keyword..

ORG (or sometimes, ".ORG" ) is an assembler directive.

assembler directives do not get translated into an instruction.

directives tell assembler *how* to assemble the source code into machine code. ORG sets the memory address at which the next instruction will be stored.
