WORD - reserves one word of storage,which is initialized to a value
defined in the operand field of the statement
RESW - reserves one or more words of storage for use by the program.
BYTE - reserves one byte of storage,which is initialized to a value
defined in the operand field of the statement
RESB - reserves one or more characters of storage for use by the
program.

Exercise-1
Write a sequence of instructions for SIC to set ALPHA equal to the
product of BETA and GAMMA. Assume that ALPHA,BETA and GAMMA
are defined.
Exercise-1 Solution
Exercise-2
Write Sequence of instructions for SIC/XE to set ALPHA equal to
4*BETA-9. Assume that ALPHA and BETA are defined. Use immediate
addressing for the constants.
Exercise-2 Solution

BETA RESW 1
Exercise-3
Write SIC Instructions to SWAP the values of ALPHA and BETA.
Exercise-3 Solution
Exercise-4
Write a sequence of instructions for SIC to set ALPHA equal to the
integer portion of BETA / GAMMA. Assume that ALPHA and BETA are
defined.
Exercise-4 Solution
Program No:4 - Looping and Indexing-SIC

The variable ALPHA,BETA and GAMMA are arrays of 100 words


each.Write a SIC and SIC/XE program to add the corresponding
elements of ALPHA and BETA, storing the results in the elements of
GAMMA.
