Mystery Program
- The program prints a quote attributed to Kurt Cobain: "Practice makes perfect... but nobody's perfect... so why practice?"

4 ;;; reverse engineered from provided hex dump.
5 ;;; Prints "practice makes perfect...but nobody's perfect...so why practice?\n\n"

7 ;;; to assemble:

9 ;;; nasm -f elf -F stabs hw2c.asm
10 ;;; ld -o program hw2c.o
