Question: Using the MARIE computer assembly language, write a program that computes the following expression: z ( a * b ) * ( c * d

Using the MARIE computer assembly language, write a program that computes the following expression:
z (a * b)*(c * d)* e. The computer will read in the input values a, b, c, d, and e from the keyboard,
and the final result (z) has to be displayed. In addition, every time an input value is read in, it must be
validated by checking that the input is a positive number. If it is positive display the number on the
screen; otherwise display zero and end the program. Each time a multiplication of two numbers is needed,
it has to be done using a multiplication subroutine. Remember that the MARIE instruction set does not
have an instruction to execute multiplication, you must create a subroutine (function) that multiplies two
numbers and call it each time you need it. The program must be tested in the MARIE simulator.
This is the code I creared but I am getting errors when attempting to assemble it.
ORG 100
Main, Input // Read input value
Store A // Store input value in A
Skipcond 800// Skip if input value is non-negative
Jump Negative // Jump to Negative if input value is negative
Output // Display input value
Load A // Load input value back into A
Input, Subt A, A // Clear accumulator
Getc // Read character from keyboard
Store A // Store input value in A
Add NegOne // Add -1 to input value
Skipcond 400// Skip if input value is negative
Jump InputErr // Jump to InputErr if input value is negative
Jump Input // Jump back to Input to read next character
Negative, Load Zero // Load zero
Store A // Store zero in A
Output // Display zero
Halt // End program
InputErr, Load Zero // Load zero
Store A // Store zero in A
Output // Display zero
Halt // End program
NegOne, Dec -1// Constant for -1
Zero, Dec 0// Constant for zero
A, Dec 0// Variable for input value
Output, Putc // Display character from accumulator
Ret // Return from subroutine
Getc, CharIn // Read character from keyboard
Ret // Return from subroutine
Store, Store X // Store accumulator value in memory
Ret // Return from subroutine
Load, Load X // Load memory value into accumulator
Ret // Return from subroutine
Skipcond, Skipcond 0// Skip if accumulator >=0
Jump X // Jump to address X
Ret // Return from subroutine
Jump, Jump X // Jump to address X
Ret // Return from subroutine
Dec, Dec 0// Decrement constant
Ret // Return from subroutine
