OTHER CONTRIBUTIONS: ASSEMBLY FOR BEGINNERS (SHARP SM83)

This is a short program that shows how easy it is to learn assembly with ugBASIC. Since version 1.14.1, in fact, it allows you to insert assembly code online. Clearly accessing all the BASIC features. This program shows how a 16-bit (2 x 8-bit) addition works under the SHARP SM83 processor.
