Question

Write the LEGv8 assembly program for following c program. Assume array1, array2 and array3 are
stored in memory with base addresses at 1000, 2000 and 3000 respectively.

int absoluteDifference(int x, int y) {
int r;
if (x > y)
r = x - y;
else
r = y - x;
return r;
}
int main() {
for (int i=0; i < 10; i++) {
int a = array1[i];
int b = array2[i];
int c = absoluteDifference(a, b);
array3[i] = c;
}
}
