Interactive Quizzes
Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.
Question 1
What does the opcode dictate in an instruction?
- What operation to perform
- Where to store the result
- What the next instruction is
💡 Hint: Think of what tells the CPU what to do first.
Question 2
True or False: A zero-address instruction specifies all operands in the instruction.
- True
- False
💡 Hint: Consider how stacks work—do they name every item, or just use what's on top?

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Design a simple instruction set for a hypothetical CPU that includes at least five different instructions. Describe their opcodes and formats.
💡 Hint: Think about what basic operations you would want a CPU to be able to perform.
Question 2
Evaluate the efficiency trade-offs of using a three-address versus a one-address instruction in a given coding scenario. What are potential issues in execution time and memory usage?
💡 Hint: Consider how sometimes longer instructions could mean fewer steps overall, but might slow things down!
