DUP Duplicate Occurrences MASM Operator
count DUP (initialvalue,,,)
Used with DB, DW, DD, DQ, and DT to specify multiple instances of
initial values.
Notes: InitialValue can be one or more items, each separated by
a comma. Each initialValue can be any expression that
evaluates into an integer value, a character constant,
or another DUP operator. Note that initialValue MUST be
enclosed within parenthesis.
Count is the number of times to duplicate the initial values.
