Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
You need to calculate (A + B) * (C + D) using both single-address and zero-address instructions. Analyze the instruction count for each.
💡 Hint: Compare the number of push and pop operations in zero-address against individual loading and storing in single-address.
Discuss how using a single operand as both source and destination simplifies coding. Provide an example through pseudo-code.
💡 Hint: Think about how many operations are avoided with direct assignment versus using additional variables.
