LAB 3 Memory Addresses

Transcription

1 LAB 3 Memory Addresses Objective: To access and explain the computer memory and memory addresses. To develop a program for moving data between CPU and RAM, and find the contents and addresses for each memory variable. To exam the address relationship among the memory variables and declared poers. To find the size of a variable in bytes. To exam indirect memory addressing mode. 1) Type and explain Example 1. Compile, Build, and Run the program. Example 1 illustrates to use of a. a poer to store the address of each element in an 8-bit array b. the address of operator (&) to initialize a poer c. MOV instruction to move the address of each element in an array to registers EAX (or EBX or ECX or EDX, etc), such as MOV EAX, cptr d. sizeof operator to find out the number of bytes of each element in the array and the address of each element in the array. e. indirect memory addressing mode to access the content stored in the memory location, for instance, MOV DL, [EAX] 2) Explain each line of Example 1 (addressconten.cpp) and describe the output of each in your lab report 3) Modify Example 2 and Example 3 provided in addresscontentemp.cpp to do: a. find the content and memory address of a16-bit array b. find the content and memory address of a 32-bit array c. find the size in bytes of the content and memory address of a 16 bit array d. find the size in bytes of the content and memory address of a 32 bit array e. use indirect addressing mode to find the content stored in the memory location and compare to the content of the original array 4) Explore the relationship among these addresses in memory. Understand the addresses for a byte, a word, and a double word, respectively. 5) Draw a table of the relationship among the variable value, the size of the variable, and the memory address of the variable. 6) Analyze the information in the table to understand the Little Endian Computer 7) Exam byte-addressable memory to store a byte, a word, and a double word, respectively. Written exercises: A title page with the lab title, your name and other identification, the current date, and the due date. If you modify or create a program in an exercise, the source code with comments for that program should appear in the laboratory report. The output from all programs should also appear in the lab report. For each exercise, you should provide a write-up describing the purpose of the exercise, what you learned from the exercise, and any comments, improvements, or other work you ve done with the exercise. If you make any mistakes that require correction, you should include the source code for the incorrect program with your lab report. Hand write on the listing where the error occurs and describe what you did to correct the problem. Appropriate diagrams can be included if needed.
