as internal sections

The following documentation on sections is meant only to show the internal use of as. Sections have no meaning at run-time. You do not really need to know about these sections for most purposes; they can be mentioned in as warning messages and, so, it might be helpful to have an idea of their meanings to as. These sections are used to permit the value of every expression in your assembly language program to be a section-relative address.

ASSEMBLER-INTERNAL-LOGIC-ERROR!

An internal assembler logic error has been found. This means there is a bug in the assembler.

expr section

The assembler stores complex expression internally as combinations of symbols. When it needs to represent an expression as a symbol, it puts it in the `expr` section.
