nasm - Unable to do overlap block transfer in Assembly -
i have made program in assembly language(nasm) overlap block transfer i.e., if 1 of array contains '10, 20, 30, 40, 50'(without quotes) after overlapping of example 2 elements resulting array should contain '10, 20, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50'(without quotes). problem when display resultant array shows '10, 20, 10, 20, 30'(without quotes). unable figure out problem. below shown code. appreciated.

your overlapped copy works fine. doesn't work how you're calling display routine.
first, have allocated 10 bytes output, when you're copying hex representation of 10-byte array (so need 20 bytes!)
second, printing 10 bytes. since we're changing length 20, should change print length too.
