Compute Enhance (The Homework)

8086 Simulator

My silly simulator can:

• disassemble a subset of 8086 instructions from binary;
• simulate storing to and reading from (simulated) registers;
• run arithmetic operations (add, sub, cmp);
• IP register and conditional jumps;
• simulate 64K of memory.
