MIPS questions about writing assembly to call func

2019-07-17 20:46发布

I currently am taking a course in assembly and am having trouble with the following assignment.

Write a program that reads (with an appropriate prompt) a sequence of 20 integers and stores them in an array, and then calls the following three functions and prints the results in a readable format.

The three functions are: smallestLargest: computes the smallest and the largest values in the array. divisible: computes the number of integers in the array which are divisible by 4 SumProduct: computes the sum and the product of the integers.

I wrote assembly code (below) to try to solve this problem but I can't get the right output except for the largest number in the array. Everything else is giving me a problem. I have no clue what's wrong, and I've been working on this for the past week and a half, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

.data
array:  .space 80
newLine:.asciiz "\n"    # I will use it to start a new line
space:  .asciiz " "     # I will use it to have a space
Prompt: .asciiz "\n Enter an integer: "
Result1:.asciiz "The smallest value in the array is "
Result2:.asciiz "The largest value in the array is "
Result3:.asciiz "The number of integers divisible by 4 is "
Result4:.asciiz "The sum of the integers is "
Result5:.asciiz "The product of the integers is "

Below is the output I am getting after entering integers 1-20

The smallest value in the array is 4
The largest value in the array is 20
The number of integers divisible by 4 is 4
The sum of the integers is 268501210
The product of the integers is 268501238

I've fixed your code. I tried to remain faithful to it where possible, but, I had to do considerable restructuring.

A few things to note.

I created functions (per the problem statement). That is, instead of the equivalent of one long main, I split things up, just like you'd do in C. I added block comments for each function.

In main, I loaded the array count into $s0 and the array base address into $s1. The calculation functions set up their values from these rather than replicating the code. (i.e.) The array address and count can be set up/changed in one place, if desired.

I changed some of the sidebar comments to be more descriptive of intent instead of merely restating the mechanics of the instruction they're on.

I also changed the labels so it was easier to match them to the functions they were in (e.g. all labels in function foo are foo_blah)

I created static test data to speed up testing. Note the commented out jal dataread to actually prompt the user.


Here's the corrected code:

    .data
array:      .space      80

array2:     .word       3, 3, 3, 17, 3
            .word       3, 24, 3, 3, 4
            .word       -4, -8, 97, 3, 2
            .word       3, 3, 3, 3, 3

newLine:    .asciiz     "\n"            # I will use it to start a new line
space:      .asciiz     " "             # I will use it to have a space

Prompt:     .asciiz     "\n Enter an integer: "
msg_min:    .asciiz     "The smallest value in the array is "
msg_max:    .asciiz     "The largest value in the array is "
msg_div4:   .asciiz     "The number of integers divisible by 4 is "

Here's a more compact variation that uses a trick of sorts. It uses the equivalent of "tail call optimization" to have a common print routine instead of replicating the printing code in each calculation function.

That is, the "trick" is the calculation functions set up arguments for the print and then jump to it via j [instead of doing a second level jal] and the print function does the jr $ra that would normally be done by the calculation functions.

Anyway, here's the code:

    .data

array2:     .word       3, 3, 3, 17, 3

Here's a C program that I used for comparison testing and validation:

// mipsmmdsp/mipsmmdsp -- check validity of mask for divisibility

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int array2[20] = {
    3,3,3,17,3,
    3,24,3,3,4,
    -4,-8,97,3,2,
    3,3,3,3,3
};

// sumprod -- calculate sum and product
void
sumprod(void)
{
    int idx;
    int val;
    int sum;
    int prod;
    int div4;
    int min;
    int max;

    sum = 0;
    prod = 1;
    div4 = 0;

    min = array2[0];
    max = array2[0];

    for (idx = 0;  idx < 20;  ++idx) {
        val = array2[idx];

        if (val < min)
            min = val;
        if (val > max)
            max = val;

        if ((val % 4) == 0)
            ++div4;

        sum += val;
        prod *= val;
    }

    printf("min=%d max=%d div4=%d sum=%d prod=%d\n",min,max,div4,sum,prod);
}

// modcheck -- check validity of mod mask
void
modcheck(void)
{
    int lo;
    int hi;
    int val;
    int mskflg;
    int modflg;
    long long cnt;

    lo = -100;
    hi = 100;

    lo = -2000000000;
    hi = 2000000000;

    cnt = 0;
    for (val = lo;  val <= hi;  ++val, ++cnt) {
        mskflg = ((val & 0x03) == 0);
        modflg = ((val % 4) == 0);

#if 0
        printf("modcheck: %4d/%8.8X: mskflg=%d modflg=%d\n",
            $val,$val,$mskflg,$modflg);
#endif

        if (mskflg != modflg) {
            printf("modcheck: FAIL %4d/%8.8X: mskflg=%d modflg=%d\n",
                val,val,mskflg,modflg);
            exit(1);
        }
    }

    printf("modcheck: cnt=%lld\n",cnt);
}

// main -- main program
int
main(void)
{

    modcheck();
    sumprod();

    return 0;
}

Side note:

In addition to the spim simulator, there is the mars simulator. It can be found here: http://courses.missouristate.edu/KenVollmar/MARS/

I've used both and prefer mars in most cases--YMMV
