Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Create an assembly language segment that illustrates both a conditional and unconditional jump. Explain how each operates within the segment.

💡 Hint: Remember how jumps alter the program’s flow and how conditions influence their execution.

Question 2

Suppose a program is using a temporary register to store a PC value before a jump. If the jump does not occur, explain how it can affect subsequent instructions.

💡 Hint: Consider the importance of restoring the PC properly for program correctness.
