    II.
    Given the following C code snippet:
    int pow = 1;
    int x = 0;
    while (pow != 128) {
    pow = pow
    *
    2;
    x = x + 1;
    }
    A.
    Explain in words what this program does.
    B.
    Fill in the blanks for the following translation of the code to the MIPS assembly language. Assume
    that register $s0 stores variable pow, while register $s1 stores variable x.
    addi $s0, __, 1
    add __, $0, $0
    ___ $t0, $0, ___
    while: beq $s0, $t0, ___
    ___ $s0, $s0, 1
    addi $s1, ___, 1
    j while
    done:
    2
    III.
    Convert this MIPS machine code into MIPS Assembly Language instructions. Your nal answers should
    use the register names, not the numbers (i.e. $t0, not $8). Also, values which represent addresses (if
    any) should be converted into the full 32 bit address.
    ADDRESS: Instructions:
    0x10001A00 001000 11101 11101 11111 11111 111100

    IV.
    Convert the following beq instruction into machine code:
    0x0040310c back: ....
    .... ...
    0x00405000 beq $t9,$s7,back
    V.
    A.
    Suppose that $s0 initially contains 0x12345678. After the following program is run on a little-endian
    system, what value does $s0 contain?
    sw $s0, 0($0)
    lb $s0, 2($0)
    B.
    Suppose that $s0 initially contains 0x23456789. After the following program is run on a big-endian
    system, what value does $s0 contain?
    sw $s0, 0($0)
    lb $s0, 1($0)
    4
    VI.
    Consider the following C snippet:
    int find42( int array[], int size)
    {
    int i; // index into array
    for (i = 0; i < size; i = i+1) {
    if (array[i] == 42) return i;
    }
    return -1;
    }
    Fill the blanks in the following translation of this snippet to MIPS assembly language. Assume that in
    the beginning of the program the pointer to array is stored in $a0 and size is stored in $a1.
    find42: addi $t0, $0, 0
    addi $t1, $0, 42
    loop: slt $t3, $t0, $a1
    beq $t3, ___, exit
    sll $t2, $t0, ___
    add $t2, $t2, $a0
    lw $t2, ___($t2)
    ___ $t2, $t1, done
    addi $t0, $t0, ___
    j loop
    done: add ___, ___, ___
    jr ___
    exit: addi $v0, $0, ___
    jr ___
    VII.
    For each statement below indicate whether it is true of false.
    True: False: Usage conventions for register use (what registers are used for what purposes) are strictly
    enforced by the assembler.
    True: False: Every instruction in the program is accessible from a single branch statement.
    True: False: There is at least one MIPS assembly instruction that can perform an arithmetical
    computation and store the result into memory.
    True: False: Using $t0 instead of $a0 to pass an argument to a subprogram will generate an error.
    True: False: If necessary, the $at register can be used by a programmer, though certain instructions
    would have to be avoided.

    VIII.
    Convert the following C snippet into MIPS assembly code. Assume that the register $s0 stores variable
    amount, while register $s1 stores variable fee.
    switch(amount){
    case 20: fee =2; break;
    case 50: fee =3; break;
    case 100: fee =5; break;
    default: fee =0;
    }
