.data

Previous Assembler Directives Next

Syntax: .data [subsection]

.data tells as to assemble the following statements onto the end of the data subsection numbered subsection (which is an absolute expression). If subsection is omitted, it defaults to zero.

In order to be compatible with the Sun assembler, the 680x0 assembler understands the directives .data1 and .data2 as alternatives to .data 1 and .data 2.
