You probably can if you've ever done it before in some other language.

As far as I'm concerned, that code is extremely sloppy, and I probably could have whipped up a better algorithm to do the same thing. But, this is the first time I've ever done Permutation, and Assembly is the last language I ever expected to do my first one in. I always concidered myself to really suck ass at Assembly, but now I feel as if I suck less at it.

Also note, comments get on my nerves sometimes.

Also, code updated, there were a few things I didn't catch earlier.

And because I'm on a generally shitty OS, I can't run both mine and my friends program at the same time, since apparently WinME gives the current 'front' application the biggest timeslice, but my friend Tonto said his takes around 25 seconds to get finished while mine got done in about 10, I really can't verify this myself though.
