==Part 1==
  
 +
Write an assembly language program that does '''not''' use the driver.c or asm_io.asm files and that displays a 32-bit integer in binary, hexadecimal, and in decimal.  When the number is displayed in decimal it is displayed as an ''unsigned'' '''int'''.  For example, 0x80000000 should display as 2147483648.
 +
 +
Your program should contain three functions, one that receives the 32-bit integer in eax and displays it in ''binary''.  One that receives the 32-bit integer in eax and displays in ''hexadecimal''.  The third one will receive the 32-bit integer in eax and display it in ''decimal'', '''without''' leading zeros.
 +
 +
Demonstrate the functionality of your program by making it display the following 32-bit integers:
 +
 +
 +
1,
 +
0xF,
 +
0X10
 +
0x12345678
 +
0x7ffffff
 +
0x89abcdef
 +
0xffffffff
 +
 +
Here is what your main program should look like:
 +
 +
<code><pre>
 +
section .data
 +
table dd 1, 15, 16
 +
        dd      0x12345678, 0x7ffffff, 0x89abcdef, 0xffffffff,
 +
N      equ    ($-table)/4
 +
 +
        section .text
 +
start:
 +
mov ebx, table
 +
mov ecx, N
 +
        mov    eax, [ebx]
 +
 +
        call    displayBin
 +
        call    nextLine
 +
call displayHex
 +
        call    nextLine
 +
call    displayUInt
 +
        call    nextLine
 +
        call    nextLine
 +
 +
        add    ebx, 4
 +
loop for
 +
 +
mov eax, EXIT
 +
mov ebx, 0
 +
int 0x80
 +
       
 +
 +
</pre></code>
 +
:where nextLine is a function that brings the cursor to the next line.
 +
 +
==Part 2==
 +
Add a fourth function to your program that will display all the registers  in hex and decimal.
