.text
Assemble Into .text Section
6-32
Syntax .text
Description The .text directive tells the assembler to begin assembling into the .text sec-
tion. The .text section usually contains executable code. The section program
counter (SPC) is set to 0, if nothing has been assembled into the .text section.
If code has already been assembled into the .text section, the SPC is restored
to its previous value in the section.
Note that the assembler assumes that .text is the default section. Therefore,
at the beginning of an assembly, the assembler assembles code into the .text
section unless you specify one of the other sections directives (.data, .entry,
or .sect).
Example This example shows the assembly of code into the .data and .text sections.
