This assignment is due on 9/23/14 @ 11:55 p.m. on Moodle.

Problem 1

Go to Moodle and answer the questions in the Homework 1, Problem 1 section. This section deals with binary, decimal, and hexadecimal number systems. Do not use a calculator or Web-based converter. You can use your notes, and you should work out the answers on paper.

Problem 2

Write an assembly language program that outputs this pattern:

A
AA 
AAA
AAAA
AAAAA
BBBBB
BBBB
BBB
BB
B

Your program should have as small a data section as you can make it. Your grade will depend on the size of your data section. The smaller the data section, the closest to 100.

Submit your program to Moodle's Homework 1, Problem 2 section.

Notes

1) The fact that the letters 'A' and 'B' are printed is important. Look at their Ascii code in the Ascii table.

2) A string is just a collection of bytes. These bytes are numbers. Nothing special about numbers...
