10 Abstractions and more abstractions You are here 10

11 6.1 Computer Operations Computer = programmable electronic device that can store, retrieve, and process data Von Neumann architecture: Data and instructions to manipulate the data are represented in the same way (binary) and are stored in the same place (memory) For processing, both data and instructions have to be brought into the CPU (fetch-execute cycle) 11

12 6.2 Machine Language Machine language = The language made up of binary coded instructions built into the hardware of a particular computer and used directly by the computer Why would anyone use machine language? (Hint: they had no choice. Why?) Image source: 12

13 Remember: The Fetch-Execute Cycle According to the CPU s machine language 13

14 Characteristics of machine language: Every processor type has its own set of specific machine instructions The relationship between the processor and the instructions it can carry out is completely integrated Each machine-language instruction does only one very low-level task 14

15 Pep/8 Virtual Computer Virtual computer A hypothetical machine designed to contain the important features of a real machine Pep/8 A virtual computer designed by Stanley Warford that has 39 machine-language instructions (We re going to cover only a few of them!) 15

16 Extra-credit 16

17 Pep/8 Registers The program counter (PC) (contains the address of the next instruction to be executed) The instruction register (IR) (contains a copy of the instruction being executed) The accumulator (register A) The memory unit is made up of 65,636 Bytes of storage Can you figure out how long the Pep/8 address is? 17

18 QUIZ The previous version of Pep, Pep/7, could use only 12 bits for memory addresses. How many memory cells could Pep/7 address? 18

19 24 bits 16 bits Explain the address format! 19

20 Can you show what instructions look like in memory? Explain the address format! 20

21 Instruction Format 21

22 Instruction Format Operation code, a.k.a. opcode Specifies which instruction is to be carried out Register specifier Specifies which register is to be used (only use A in this chapter) Addressing-mode specifier Says how to interpret the operand part of the instruction: Direct Immediate Say that again?!? 22

23 Instruction Format Addressing-mode specifier Says how to interpret the operand part of the instruction: Direct Immediate?? Immediate A + B Direct 23

24 Immediate and direct addressing modes 24

25 Immediate and direct addressing modes Example: ADD 42 to accumulator A What exactly am I to add? 25

26 Instruction Format Addressing modes: immediate direct Is there something we are not telling you about Pep s addressing modes? 26

27 PEP/8 machine instructions 27

28 What does this instruction mean, what is its hex code, and what exactly does it do? 28 EOL 1

29 QUIZ Name all the 4 parts of the fetch-execute cycle. What do IR, A, and PC stand for in the computer s architecture? Name and explain the 2 addressing modes we ve covered. 29

30 QUIZ: Immediate vs. direct addressing We have this Pep instruction: SUB 30 from accumulator A What exactly will Pep subtract? 30

31 We have this Pep instruction: SUB 30 from accumulator A What exactly will Pep subtract? A: It depends on the addressing mode! If immediate (000), then the integer 30 goes in A. If direct (001), then the content of the memory address 30 goes in A. Solution 31

32 QUIZ: Immediate vs. direct addressing We have this Pep instruction: LOAD 20 (decimal) into accumulator A What exactly will Pep load? 32

33 What does this instruction mean, what is its hex code, and what exactly does it do? 33

34 What does this instruction mean, what is its hex code, and what exactly does it do? 34

35 What do these instructions mean, what are their hex codes, and what exactly do they do? 35

36 Wait a second... 36

37 Conclusions It is useless to write operands into IR. IR is written only in the FETCH stage of the Fetch-Execute cycle, when the 3 bytes of the instruction are brought from memory. Operands can be written only to: Accumulator Memory Some instructions cannot have the immediate addressing mode 37

38 What do these instructions mean, what are their hex codes, and what exactly do they do? 38

39 What does this instruction mean, what is its hex code, and what exactly does it do? Why is there only one on this page?

40 40 What do these instructions mean, what are their hex codes, and what exactly do they do?

49 Problem 33 / 191 The PEP/8 memory has the following program in memory (in hex): Convert the program to binary and explain in your own words what it does. 49

50 Fact: Writing programs in machine language sucks! (i.e. it is time-consuming, boring, errorprone, unintuitive, etc.) 50

51 that s why we invented assembly language 51

52 6.4 Assembly Language Assembly language A language that uses mnemonic codes to represent machine-language instructions Assembler A program that reads each of the instructions in mnemonic form and translates it into the machine-language equivalent 52

53 Steps for executing an assembly-language program Loader 53 Execute Program in memory

54 Pep/8 Assembly Language Opcode is 04 Opcode is 31 Opcode is 38 Opcode is 39 54

55 Hello program in assembly mnemonic operand addressing mode comments CHARO CHARO CHARO CHARO CHARO STOP.END 0x0048, i ;Outputs character 'H' 0x0065, i 0x006C, i 0x006C, i 0x006F, i What in the world is this?! 55

56 A New Program Problem: Read and sum three values and print the sum How would you do it by hand? 56

57 Declaring variables in assembly: We simply reserve space in memory for them! Labels they are just placeholders for memory addresses 57

58 Assembler directives, a.k.a. pseudo-ops What is the difference between operations and pseudo operations? 58

59 Completed Program sum:.word 0x0000 num1:.block 2 num2:.block 2 num3:.block 2 main: LDA sum,d DECI num1,d ADDA num1,d DECI num2,d ADDA num2,d DECI num3,d ADDA num3,d STA sum,d DECO sum,d STOP.END 59

60 Completed Program Houston, we have a problem! How does the CPU know that the program starts here? sum:.word 0x0000 num1:.block 2 num2:.block 2 Num3:.BLOCK 2 main: LDA sum,d DECI num1,d ADDA num1,d DECI num2,d ADDA num2,d DECI num3,d ADDA num3,d STA sum,d DECO sum,d STOP.END 60

61 Solution: Branch instruction BR main sum:.word 0x0000 num1:.block 2 num2:.block 2 num3:.block 2 main: LDA sum,d DECI num1,d ADDA num1,d DECI num2,d ADDA num2,d DECI num3,d ADDA num3,d STA sum,d DECO sum,d STOP.END See comments on next slide 61

62 Unconditional branch! Completed Program 62

63 Your turn! Change the program so it adds only two numbers: always EOL 3

64 We have covered the beginning of section 6.4. We stopped before the sub-section A Program with Branching. Read the text carefully and make sure you can explain in your own words what each instruction accomplishes. Individual work (do in notebook for next time): 16, 17, 19, EOL 3 64

65 Decision-making instructions BR Set PC to operand unconditionally BRLT i Set PC to operand if A < 0 BREQ i Set PC to operand if A = 0 65

66 Decision making problem: Same as previous sum program, but print the sum only if positive or zero; if negative, print an error message negmsg: CHARO 0x0045,i BR finish main: LDA sum,d BRLT negmsg STA sum,d DECO sum,d finish: STOP What ASCII code is this? 66

67 Decision making problem: Same as before, but print the sum only if positive or zero; if negative, print E (Error) negmsg: CHARO 0x0045,i BR finish main: LDA sum,d BRLT negmsg STA sum,d DECO sum,d finish: STOP ASCII code for 'E' How many ways are there to reach finish?

68 QUIZ: Would the decision program from the first example still work if the negmsg block were placed after the main program instead of before? main: LDA sum,d BRLT negmsg STA sum,d DECO sum,d finish: STOP negmsg: CHARO 0x0045,i BR finish 68

69 QUIZ: What does this program do? BR main a:.block 2 main: DECI a, d LDA a, d SUBA 0x002A, i STA a, d DECO a, d STOP.END 69

70 Solution BR main a:.block 2 main: DECI a, d LDA a, d SUBA 0x002A, i STA a, d DECO a, d STOP.END A: It subtracts 42 from the number entered, and displays the result. 70

71 QUIZ: What does this program do? BR main a:.block 2 main: DECI a, d LDA a, d SUBA 0x002A, i STA a, d BREQ yes DECO a, d fin: STOP yes: CHARO 0x0046, i BR fin.end ASCII code for 'F' 71

72 QUIZ: Write an assembly program to subtract from and put the result in memory Take inspiration from the program we studied last time: BR main sum:.word 0x0000 num1:.block 2 num2:.block 2 num3:.block 2 main: LDA sum,d DECI num1,d ADDA num1,d DECI num2,d ADDA num2,d DECI num3,d ADDA num3,d STA sum,d DECO sum,d STOP.END 72

73 Three quizzes for individual work Write a program that adds the number 3 to a number entered by the user, and prints : the result if equal to zero, otherwise it prints nothing. the result if less than zero, otherwise it prints nothing. the result if greater than zero, otherwise it prints nothing. 73

74 What does this program do? (p.173) CPA must always be followed by a conditional branch! 74

76 6.5 Algorithms and Pseudocode Algorithm = A sequence of steps for solving a problem Muḥammad ibn Mūsā al-khwārizmī ( A.D.) 76

77 Remember: Decision-making instructions BR Set PC to operand unconditionally BRLT i Set PC to operand if A < 0 BREQ i Set PC to operand if A = 0 77

78 Not in text How to describe an algorithm in an intuitive way? Flowcharts! We use decision-making instructions to build: branches loops 78

79 Problems with flowcharts: They re hard to follow when they get complex Not in text 79

80 Problems with flowcharts: They re hard to follow when they get complex They re hard to draw in electronic documents Not in text 80

81 Problems with flowcharts: They re hard to follow when they get complex They re hard to draw in electronic documents Not in text Our text uses only pseudocode 81

82 6.5 Algorithms and Pseudocode Pseudocode = A mixture of English and formatting to make the steps in an algorithm explicit There are no syntax rules in pseudocode! Pseudocode is not case sensitive! Example: Repeated-division algorithm (convert base-10 number to other bases): While ( the quotient is not zero ) Divide the decimal number by the new base Make the remainder the next digit to the left in the answer Replace the original decimal number with the quotient 82

83 Algorithms can also be described in natural language! 83

84 but pseudocode is more precise IF concerned about cholesterol Put butter substitute in a pot ELSE Put butter in a pot Turn on burner Put pot on the burner WHILE (NOT bubbling) Leave pot on the burner Put other ingredients in the blender Turn on blender WHILE (more in pot) Pour contents into lender in slow steam Turn off blender 84

85 Draw the flowchart for this pseudocode IF concerned about cholesterol Put butter substitute in a pot ELSE Put butter in a pot Turn on burner Put pot on the burner WHILE (NOT bubbling) Leave pot on the burner Put other ingredients in the blender Turn on blender WHILE (more in pot) Pour contents into lender in slow steam Turn off blender 85

86 Pseudocode functionality Pseudocode has all of the concepts encountered in any high-level programming language, only the syntax is informal: Variables Assignment I/O Selection / decision Repetition / loop Boolean expressions 86

87 Reading assignment: Pages of the text Refer to your Python programming experience! 87

88 We can test a pseudocode algorithm w/pencil & paper, a.k.a. desk checking While ( the quotient is not zero ) Divide the decimal number by the new base Make the remainder the next digit to the left in the answer Replace the original decimal number with What is 93 in base 8? 93/8 gives 11 remainder 5 11/8 gives 1 remainder 3 1/ 8 gives 0 remainder 1 answer

89 Organizing the solution in a computer-like way gives us better idea of what is required for the computer to execute it, e.g. two numbers need to be entered, etc. 89
