Evolution of a program through the top-down design approach. The problem is given this data structure:
strings db 5, "Hello" db 6, "Sharon" db 7, "Pamela!"
write a program that prints all strings (preceded by the number of chars they contain) in a box of stars.
Version 1
;;; towDown.asm
;;; only the main program is expanded here.
