User interface:

The interaction between the user and the computer is provided by a facility in the operating system (OS) known as user interface. It is an important function of the OS.

There are three types of user interface; they are,

  • Graphical User Interface (GUI)
  • Menu-driven user interfaces
  • Command-line user interfaces

GUI (Graphical User Interface):

  • It is the most popular user interface design in use, which uses graphics and mouse click events to make the programs easier to use for the users.
  • Desktop is the screen image that helps the user to work in the computer in a user-friendly environment.
  • It also popularized use of mouse as an input device rather than typing inputs from keyboards.
  • When a GUI (Graphical User Interface) program that are created gets responded to the action performed by the user it is called as event-driven.
  • This program is created by user by designing the windows of program and designs all graphical components.

Assume that a string of name & surname is saved in S. The alphabetical characters in S can be in lowercase and/or uppercase letters. Name and surname are assumed to be separated by a space character and the string ends with a full stop "." character. Write an assembly language program that will copy the name to NAME in lowercase and the surname to SNAME in uppercase letters. Assume that name and/or surname cannot exceed 20 characters. The program should be general and work with every possible string with name & surname. However, you can consider the data segment definition given below in your program. .DATA S DB 'Mahmoud Obaid." NAME DB 20 DUP(?) SNAME DB 20 DUP(?) Hint: Uppercase characters are ordered between 'A' (41H) and 'Z' (5AH) and lowercase characters are ordered between 'a' (61H) and 'z' (7AH) in the in the ASCII Code table. For lowercase letters, bit 5 (d5) of the ASCII code is 1 where for uppercase letters it is 0. For example, Letter 'h' Binary ASCII 01101000 68H 'H'…
