Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design two instructions: one using direct addressing that loads from location 3 and another using register indirect addressing where Register 2 holds 3.

💡 Hint: How do both instructions differ in accessing data?

Challenge 2 Hard

Write a short program that uses displacement addressing to iterate through an array of integers using a base of 0 and incrementing register 1 for each loop iteration.

💡 Hint: How can you control the number of iterations while accessing each array entry?
