Question

I am writing a program to get an integer from the user, and then print out all the numbers from 0 up to the number. My code gets the input fine, but when printing it out, it prints continuously in what seems to be an endless loop. Here is my code:

SECTION .data           ; Constant variable declaration
len   EQU 32        ; Constant length
msg db "Enter a number: ", 0 ; Input message
msglen EQU $-msg             ; Input message length

SECTION .bss            ; Uninitialised data declaration
other resd len      ; Output counter that is incremented
data  resd len      ; Input data buffer 

SECTION .text           ; Main program initialiser

GLOBAL _start           ; Linker entry point declaration
_start:                 ; Entry point
nop                 ; This keeps the debugger happy :)

Msg:                    ; This section prints out the message
mov eax, 4          ; }
mov ebx, 1          ; }
mov ecx, msg        ; } System_write call
mov edx, msglen     ; }
int 80h             ; }

input:                  ; This section gets the integer from the user
mov eax, 3          ; }
mov ebx, 0          ; }
mov ecx, data       ; } System_read call
mov edx, len        ; }
int 80h             ; }

ASCIIAdj:   
mov ebp, 48         ; This line sets the counter to '0' ASCII

setup:                  ; This section adjusts the counter
mov [other], ebp    ; Increment counter 

loop:                   ; This section loops, printing out from zero to the number given
mov eax, 4          ; }
mov ebx, 1          ; }
mov ecx, other      ; } System_write call
mov edx, len        ; }
int 80h             ; }
mov eax, 1          ; Move 1 to eax
add ebp, eax        ; Add eax to ebp (essentially increment ebp)
    mov eax, other      ; move other to eax
    mov ebx, data       ; move data to ebx
    cmp eax, ebx        ; compare them
jne setup           ; If they are not the same, go back to the setup to increment other

exit:                   ; Exits the program
mov eax, 1          ; }
mov ebx, 0          ; } System_exit call
int 80h             ; }

Why does it loop continuously? I have incremented the counter, and compared the input and the counter, so why doesn’t it break?

Thanks in advance

EDIT:
Expected Output:

Enter a number: 6
0123456

General Semantics of the program:

Display "Enter a number: "
Read in an integer less than 32 bytes in size.
Set a counter variable to the ASCII value of zero
Loop:
Display the character, adding 1 to it, and checking to see if it is equal to the value    inputted.
If it is equal, goto the exit section and exit
Else loop.

This is digging waaaay back into the deep dark recesses of my memory, but I think you want

mov eax, [other]      ; move other to eax
mov ebx, [data]       ; move data to ebx

Note the brackets, which are missing in your code. You are loading the addresses of other and data into eax and ebx, not the values contained there.
