Assignment #1
This assignment is due on Wednesday 9/17/08, at 11:59 p.m. plus one minute. You will need to submit the different parts of this assignment electronically so make sure you have a working CSC231 class account.
Problem #1: Number conversions
Convert by hand the following decimal numbers in binary and in hexadecimal:
11 23 65 1023
Convert the following hexadecimal numbers to binary and decimal
11 23 6f ffffffff
Convert the following binary numbers to hexadecimal and decimal
01010101 11110 1111 1110 1101 0001
Store your answers in a file called hw1.txt (all lowercase, with a one, not an ell in front of the dot) in your 231a-xx account. The information below will show you how to submit this file.
Problem #2: Reverse engineering
Same exercise as the one we did in class. Here is the collection of bytes representing the program
00000000 676565

Reconstruct the original program and write its assembly code. Store your program in a file called hw1.asm (no uppercase, and it's a one in front of the dot, not an ell).
Remember that you can generate the listing of your assembly program by using the -l (minus ell) switch:
nasm -f elf -F stabs -l hw1.lst hw1.asm
The output of your program should be the same output as the program shown here outputs when it runs.
Submission
To submit your files, you need to connect to your 231a-xx account where the two files will reside: hw1.txt and hw1.asm.
Submit both hw1.txt and hw1.asm as follows:
submit hw1 hw1.txt submit hw1 hw1.asm
To verify that the files have been copied to your instructor's handin folder correctly, try submitting both files again, and if the submit command asks if you want to overwrite the already existing file, then that means that your file is already submitted and in the right place.
You may submit new versions of your program at any time. When you submit a file a second time, it overwrites the previous version.
