EE229 – Computer Organization and Assembly Language


Assignment 3
Fall 2019

Maximum Marks: 100 Due Date: 08 November 2019

Instructions:
 Partially or fully copied assignments will be marked as zero.
 Only handwritten solution on A4 page will be accepted.
 Late submissions are not allowed and you can submit the assignment during the class only.
 Include comments in your codes/program for a better understanding.
 For question number 4 there is no need to rewrite the code. Just put the instruction number
and your answer in your solution.

Question Number 1 (5 + 10 = 15 marks)


Translate the following pseudocodes to equivalent assembly language codes. (All the variables are 32
bit unsigned integers)

if( eb > ec AND eb > ed) OR ( ed > ea )


{
X = 1;
}
else
{
X = 2;
}
int array[] = {10,60,20,33,72,89,45,65,72,18};
int sample = 50;
int ArraySize = sizeof array / sizeof sample;
int index = 0;
int sum = 0;
while( index < ArraySize )
{
if( array[index] > sample )
{
sum += array[index];
}
index++;
}

Question Number 2 (10 marks)


Write an assembly language program that will look for the first nonzero value in an array of 16-bit
integers. If it finds one, it displays the value; otherwise, it displays a message stating that a nonzero
value was not found. Use an array of 16 bit integers with at least 6 elements to test your program.

Question Number 3 (4 + 4 + 2 = 10 marks)


a) Write a procedure that receives a number in EAX, counts the number of ones in its binary
representation, and returns this count in BX.
b) Then write another procedure that receives a number in BX and set the PF if the number is
even and clear the PF if number is odd.
c) Write a main program to count the number of 1’s in EAX and set the PF accordingly.

Question Number 4 (10 marks)


In the following code sequence, show the value of AL after each shift or rotate instruction is executed:

a) mov al,0D4h
b) shr al,1 ; AL =
c) mov al,0D4h
d) sar al,1 ; AL =
e) mov al,0D4h
f) sar al,4 ; AL =
g) mov al,0D4h
h) rol al,1 ; AL =
i) mov al,0D4h
j) ror al,3 ; AL =
k) mov al,0D4h
l) rol al,7 ; AL =
m) stc
n) mov al,0D4h
o) rcl al,1 ; AL =
p) stc
q) mov al,0D4h
r) rcr al,3 ; AL =

Question Number 5 (15 marks)


Write a procedure to calculate the sum of an integer array (size of each element can be byte, word or
double word). Use stack method to pass the arguments.

Question Number 6 (15 marks)


Write a program that uses a loop to calculate the first seven values of the Fibonacci number sequence,
described by the following formula:
Fib (1) = 1, Fib (2) = 1, Fib (n) = Fib (n -1) + Fib (n - 2)
Place each value in the EAX register and display it by calling a procedure inside the loop.

Question Number 7 (5 marks)


Suppose there were no PUSH instruction. Write a sequence of other instructions that would
accomplish the same as PUSH EAX.

Question Number 8 (5 marks)


Write an ALP to XOR the upper and lower halves of EAX register.

Question Number 9 (15 marks)


Analyze the procedure below and describe its overall operation in few English statements. The
procedure “WriteChar” from the Irvine32 library is used to print a character.

proc1 PROC

mov ecx, 8
mov ebx, eax

mov edx, 0
shld edx, ebx, 4
rol ebx, 4
cmp dl, 10
