title: How to calculate a negative number in assembly
body: <p>I'm a newbie in assembly and I have a question about how to represent negative numbers
  I have three DWORDS variable, let say: </p>
  
  <pre><code>result DWORD 0
  i DWORD 3
  j DWORD 5
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and I want to calculate this formula: result = i - j + 8
  but, when i do the i-j, the result will be a very high number because of the sign
  so how do I make the result ok in the end?</p>
