8086 String

This program finds the maximum number in a 16 byte string and stores it in memory location 0510. It initializes registers SI and CX, uses a loop to compare each byte to the accumulator AH and update AH if a larger number is found, and finally stores the maximum in 0510 once the loop finishes. The input string contains numbers from 01-15 and the program correctly identifies 15 as the largest value.
