Why doesn’t “i” in my example increment? The value keeps going back to 1 even
after I used += 1 so its like the old copy of the stack before the jump got
pushed back on top and it started over. I don’t understand how assembly works
but I thought it would just start over and the state of the stack in that
function would still be the same as before so I could keep adding 1 every pass.
