Enter the contents as shown in Figure 1. Figure 1 Click OK button and a new project will be created. A new workspace will also be created using the same name with the project. In the workspace window, the new workspace and project will be opened by the IDE. A directory proj1 will be created with location as shown in the above window. Note: By right clicking on the Workspace name : n project(s) that appears in the left window after a workspace name is created, a new project can be added to the workspace by selecting Add New Project to Workspace Figure 2 Normally, n represents the total number of projects that are currently in the workspace. You will have to right click the proj1 files and select Set as Active Project in order to build the project. P. 1

2 Figure 3 (2) Create a Source File: Select File New and a new editor window without a specific title will appear. Type in the source code and save the file as add_num.s in the proj1 directory. Figure 4 P. 2

3 (3) Add a Source File to the Project. First right-click Project Source Files Add Files to Folder Figure 5 A file selection dialog will appear and select the file add_num.s that has just been created. Figure 6 Finally, the source file is added to the project and the following screen should appear. Figure 7 P. 3
