The second program (or rather two of them) implements
fast algorithms for division and multiplication of large
numbers. On this basis, it is easy to write the p / n decimal
numbers in the registers (the conversion line in number).
Designation:
MUL_HLBC_DE: Registers HLBC = HLBC * DE
DIV_HLBC_DE: Registers HLBC = HLBC / DE
Entry point MUL16 and DIV16, as follows from
names, perform the multiplication and division of 16-bit
numbers. And, if multiplied by 16 bits at 16, then
result is 32 bits.

Well, like it is all for today. Yes, a little
do not forget: all these applets written somewhere in the
1983 was none other than Tim Paterson, author of MSX-DOS
and the first version of MS-DOS. Such are the things ...
