How many errors did I make?

in the loop - the string pointer is used first, is all
they could be swapped with no real difference
the loop would need to be modified slightly - so the string pointer is [edx+4] and the value is [edx]

Well it is a question of correctly addressing the locations of memory
we need, so if we change the position, the offset changes accordingly.

Good - thanks
