assembly question

plese can you help me in this question

Given an array of two digits numbers with each digit is stored as a character, do the following:

a. Write a function FINDMIN that will find the smallest number among a set of numbers.

b. Write a function FINDMAX that will find the largest number among a set of numbers.

c. Given the following array X=12,23,14,16, write a program that will use findmax and findmin functions. Remember X is an array of two digits numbers which are stored as characters and not numbers. That is, 12 is stored in two bytes as:32H in the most byte and 31H in the most byte

i've written the code but my numbers are stored as a byte hex numbers how can it be stored as two bytes?

this was the code i wrote:

Code:

ASSUME CS:CODE, DS: DATA

    MOV  AX,DATA ;data seg. initialization
    MOV  DS,AX

    jl    LEE
    loop  NEE
 
 LO: mov  min,al
    ret
 FINDMIN      endp

CODE    ENDS
END    START
