Question

(Make sure in Mips!!!) Use the correct “syscall” to create MIPS programs for the following.

!!! please use comments and ALWAYS use the correct syscall program code to end the program. !!!

1) Write a program in MIPS which asks the user to enter their favorite type of pie. The program should then print out "So you like _____ pie", where the blank line is replaced by the pie type entered.

ALSO: What annoying feature of syscall service 4 makes it impossible at this point to make the output appear on a single line???

(Make sure to comment and show screenshot if possible.)

Answer 1

Greetings!!

Code:

.data

prompt: .asciiz "Please enter your favourite type of pie\n"

mes1: .asciiz "So you like "

mes2: .asciiz "pie"

pie: .space 20

.text

#MAIN STARTS HERE

main:

#DISPLAY THE PROMPT MESSAGE

            la $a0,prompt #load the address of the prompt message

            li $v0,4            #parameter for display string

            syscall             #display

#READ STRING FROM THE USER

            la $a0,pie        #load the address of string

            li $a1,20          #number of characters to be read

            li $v0,8            #parameter for reading string

            syscall             #read

#DISPLAY THE MESSAGE SO YOU LIKE

            la $a0,mes1     #load the address of the prompt message

            li $v0,4            #parameter for display string

            syscall             #display

#DISPLAY THE STRING READ FROM THE USER

            la $a0,pie        #load the address of the prompt message

            li $v0,4            #parameter for display string

            syscall             #display

#DISPLAY THE MESSAGE PIE

            la $a0,mes2     #load the address of the prompt message

            li $v0,4            #parameter for display string

            syscall             #display

#END OF THE PROGRAM

            li $v0,10          #parameter for display string

            syscall             #display
