Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given the dividend 25 and divisor 6, execute the Non-Restoring Division algorithm step-by-step, detailing the values in the registers after every major step.

💡 Hint: Focus on keeping track of the changes in each iteration as you go through the algorithm.

Challenge 2 Hard

Compare the performance of the Non-Restoring Division Algorithm with the Restoring Division Algorithm in terms of operation count when dividing a large number (e.g., 1024 divided by 40). Provide reasoning for your observations.

💡 Hint: Consider counting operations such as shifts, additions, and subtractions in both algorithms.
