Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What does immediate mode mean in computer operations?

  • Operand is fetched from memory
  • Operand is directly in the instruction
  • Operand address is specified

💡 Hint: Focus on how the operand is positioned.

Question 2

True or False: Indirect addressing requires only four micro-instructions.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Recall the larger number of steps involved.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider an algorithm that uses references for operands frequently changing during execution. Which addressing mode would best suit this need and why?

💡 Hint: Think about how the operands might need to shift during execution.

Question 2

Illustrate how immediate mode can simplify calculations in a tight loop scenario—provide an example instruction to support your explanation.

💡 Hint: Consider the efficiency of redundant data fetching in loops.
