    Lab 7 - ARRAY

    Uploaded by

    Kappa Boosted
    The document discusses arrays in MIPS assembly language. It begins by explaining how to declare an array and reserve space in memory for it. It then demonstrates how to initialize an array with values and traverse through an array. Examples are given to access array elements to print or input values. Practice problems are provided to input arrays of integers from keyboard and perform operations like calculating sum, average, finding min/max, sorting, etc. The key points are declaring and accessing arrays in MIPS assembly along with examples and exercises to work with integer arrays.

    ARRAY
    1. Array Declaration
    The first step is to reserve sufficient space for the array:
    .data
    list: .space 1000 # reserves a block of 1000 bytes

    This yields a contiguous block of bytes of the specificed byte. The label is a symbolic name for the
    address of the beginning of the array.

    list == 1004000

    The size of the array is specified in bytes... could be used as:


    - array of 1000 char values (ASCII codes)
    - array of 250 int values
    - array of 125 double values

    An array can also be declared with a list of initializers:


    .data
    vowels: .byte 'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u'
    pow2: .word 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128

    vowels names a contiguous block of 5 bytes, set to store


    the given values; each value is stored in a single byte.

    Address of vowels[k] == vowels + k

    pow2 names a contiguous block of 32 bytes, set to store


    the given values; each value is stored in a word (4 bytes)

    3. Array Access

    Example 1: Get the elements from the list


    .data
    list: .word 11, 13, 15, 17, 19
    length: .word 5
    .text
    .globl main
    main:
    la $s0, list # s0= array address
    li $s1, 0 # i=0
    lw $s2, length # array dimension

    printLoop: # Loop to print elements


    li $v0, 1 # code=1: print integer
    lw $a0, ($s0) # Get list[i]
    syscall

    addi $s1, $s1, 1 # i=i+1


    addi $s0, $s0, 4 # step to next array cell
    blt $s1, $s2, printLoop # if i<N printLoop

    # if i=N then Exit


    li $v0, 10
    syscall

    Example 2: Input integers into the list


    .data
    list: .word 0
    length: .word 5
    .text
    .globl main
    main:
    la $s0, list # s0= array address
    li $s1, 0 # i=0
    lw $s2, length # array dimension
    readLoop:
    li $v0, 5 # read integer, store to $v0
    syscall
    sw $v0,($s0) # list[i] = entered number
    addi $s1,$s1,1 # i=i+1
    addi $s0,$s0, 4 # step to next array cell
    blt $s1, $s2, readLoop # if i<N readLoop

    Example 3: Write a program to input an array of 4 integers, output the array just
    entered to the screen.
    .data
    list1: .word 0
    N: .word 4
    msg_in: .asciiz "input: "
    msg_out: .asciiz "output: "
    .text
    .globl main
    main:
    # print a string input
    li $v0, 4
    la $a0, msg_in
    syscall

    # Array
    la $s0, list1 #list Address
    li $s1, 0 #i=0
    lw $s2, N #N: array dimension

    # Read an integer
    readLoop:
    li $v0, 5 # read integer, store to $v0
    syscall
    sw $v0, ($s0) # list[i]= entered number
    addi $s1,$s1,1 # i=i+1
    addi $s0,$s0, 4 # step to next array cell
    bne $s1, $s2, readLoop

    # Print a string output


    li $v0, 4
    la $a0, msg_out
    syscall

    # print elements from list


    la $s0, list1 #list Address
    li $s1, 0 #i=0
    printLoop:
    li $v0, 1
    lw $a0, ($s0) # $a0 = Get list[i]
    syscall
    addi $s1,$s1,1 # i=i+1
    addi $s0,$s0, 4 # step to next array cell
    bne $s1, $s2, printLoop

    #exit:
    li $v0, 10
    syscall
