Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

If you have the instruction 2X3A where 2 is the opcode and '3A' refers to a memory address, what does the instruction imply, and what actions will the CPU perform?

💡 Hint: Decode the instruction parts and determine the resulting action.

Challenge 2 Hard

Given an instruction set with opcodes mapped to specific arithmetic operations, explain how the CPU would handle the sequence: LOAD M, ADD N, STORE P in two different scenarios where M equals 10, N equals 5, and P equals 0 initially.

💡 Hint: Follow through the operations step by step.
