Problem #1
Th program below computes the sum of all the numbers between 0 and 10. It is the final version of the program we developed in class on Thursday 10/11/12.
Note that in assembly we can place comments in the code by preceding them with semicolons. The words following a semicolons are ignored by the translator when it takes the assembly-language program and puts the mnemonics in memory.

start:
; sum <- counter
lod counter
sto sum
; counter <- counter - 1
loop:
lod counter
dec
sto counter
; if counter is 0, then jump out of loop
jmz done
; sum <- sum + counter
lod sum
add counter
sto sum
; go back to compute new sum
jmp loop
; if we reach this point, then we are done with
; the loop and sum should contain the result
done: hlt
Just to verify that the program works, copy/paste its code into the simulator (click here to get the applets). Run the program by selecting the fastest speed , and then clicking on Run.
