Project Help Please? Urgent
I'm working on a project and I'm writing a code that performs these 7 subroutines:
· uart_init initializes the user UART for use.
· output_character transmits a character from the UART to HyperTerminal.
· read_string reads a string entered in HyperTerminal and stores it as a null-terminated string in memory. The user terminates the string by hitting Enter.
· output_string transmits a null-terminated string to be displayed in HyperTerminal.
· read_character reads a character which is received by the UART from HyperTerminal.
· convert_2_lowercase is the subroutine which converts all the characters in the string to lowercase.
· sort orders the characters in the word alphabetically.
So far, I've written this:
Code:
AREA Serial, CODE, READONLY
EXPORT lab3
SER EQU 0x04 ; Serial Port
USTAT0 EQU 0x08 ; UART Status Register
TRANS EQU 0x0C ; Transmit Register
RECEIV EQU 0x10 ; Receive Register
BAUD EQU 0x14 ;
string = "--------------------",0
prompt = " Enter a string up to 20 characters long:", 0

The code prompts the user fine, and it reads and transmits the string perfectly as well. However, I can't seem to figure out how to Branch and Link my program from the "main" part to my convert_2_lowercase and sort programs so that they function as well.
I appreciate any and all the help I can get. I'm honestly lost at this point.
Thank you
btw, this is for an ARM7TDMI processor.
