Problem #1

• & Use the 231Lib.asm library as inspiration and write a function called printInt that prints a 32-bit 2-s complement number on the screen.
• Your function should work similarly to printDec, in that the number to print is passed through eax, and not through the stack!
• Your function should not modify any of the registers, including eax.
• Your function should be made global so that a test program can call it.
• Submit your function in a program called Hw7_1.asm.

Examples

          section .text

          extern  printInt
_start:
          mov     eax, 0
          call    printInt         ; prints 0
  
          mov     eax, 0xff
          call    printInt         ; prints 255

          mov     eax, -1
          call    printInt         ; prints -1

          mov     eax, 0xffffffff
          call    printInt         ; prints -1
          ...
