Re: how to use .section command in asm code?

[Sofiane Akermoun <akersof@xxxxxxxxx>]

This is not a command.
.section is a keyword related to your assembler syntax, probably gas
in your case.
A binary should have a section containing the code.
with gas we declare it with: .section .text with nasm we declare it
with section .text
We write below this tag all the executable code.
A binary could need data of course we create a section containing all
the data with .section .data with gas.
Your asm source file should be like this:
#some headers here
.section .data
    #initialized data here

.section .text
    global _start
    _start:
           #the executable code
