In this lab you will program at the lowest level of programmation: at the assembly language level. You will write small programs in assembly, and see how the programs correspond to numbers that are stored in memory. Some numbers represent instructions, some numbers represent data. But everything in memory is a number! That's a very important concept of CSC103!

Part 1: Starting the simulator

  • Go to the applet page for the class. Click on
