How to find the functinf ths assembly program
Hi to all , I am attaching a code , the q is what is the function of this code ? I aske the same q bfore but not able to know the answer but I done more study and want to check my work? also there return that should show but could not include in the pic .
this is my answer The loop takes in turn 99 data values from a block stored in data memory
starting at hexadecimal address 0500, finds their 2s complement and stores
the results in a block of data memory starting at hexadecimal addres 0563

In short : it seems you're further off than you were before (in the previous question).
In that question, you analyzed each of the statements, and understood what they did. The only thing that was left to do, was to place it all together, and to see the wood through the trees. That's all.
I suggested using pseudo code to help you understand what was going on. Did you give that a try ?

Do you know what pseudo code is ?

yes I know it , we took at uni before long time ago , but thks for the link ......I will see what each instruction is doing again ,and get back asap.
ok. I'll be here :)

Hi , I noticed that no matter what the value in rA is zero so could it be the function that to make sure whats in rA is alawys zero !!!!!!
So, what do you think that line 7 does ?
ASKER
line seven just jump one instruction whatever the setuation to the instruction that will add 1 to rE SO it jump to the istruction where increment rE BY 1, IS that right .
I was referring to the line marked as 7 in the screenshot you posted :
>> add immediate rA 0001
That modifies rA, doesn't it ? So, rA will not always be 0 ...
>> add immediate rA 0001
That modifies rA, doesn't it ? So, rA will not always be 0 ...
ASKER
that,s correct only if the condition is met which in this case if the value are -ve then add one to rA . also the program uses whats in rE i.e 0500 and store it in r1 .

There are 100 values there, not 99.
I'm not sure what you mean by "finding the 2s complement". two's complement is a way to stored signed integer values. Read up on it if you're not familiar with it :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two%27s_complement
You say it stores "the results" - what are these results ?
How did you get to the address 0x0563 ?
