Using a text editor, create a file english.txt containing the following 
    words:
    
    yes no go come thanks goodbye
    
    Create a second file chinese.txt contain the following words:
    
    shi bu qu lai xiexie zaijian
    
    Write a program that reads the words from english.txt so that
    the successive slots of a char * array english point to them. 
    Use the %s conversion code in a fscanf call to read one word
    at a time.
             
    Similarly, read the words from chinese.txt so that the 
    successive slots of a char * array chinese point to them.
    
    Your program should then execute a loop that prompts the user 
    for an English word, reads it in (use scanf), and then 
    displays the corresponding Chinese word. The loop should 
    continue until the user enters the word "done".

This problem is adapted from an earlier edition of P&H.

Consider the following code used to implement the instruction: foo $s0,$s1,$s2

mask: .word 0xFFFFF83F

start: la $t0,mask

lw $t0,0($t0)

la $s0,shftr

lw $s0,0($s0)

and $s0,$s0,$t0

andi $s2,$s2,0x1f

sll $s2,$s2,6

or $s0,$s0,$s2

la $t5,shftr

sw $s0,0($t5)

shftr: sll $s0,$s1,0

Add meaningful comments to the code. Please explain each line and write a paragraph describing how it works. Why do you suppose that writing “self-modifying code” such as this is a bad idea (and often times not actually allowed)?

Please explain it. thank you.

Note: We have not covered the .word directive yet. This is an assembler directive, which is essentially an instruction to the assembler (NOT an assembly language instruction). In this case, it tells the assembler to reserve a word of memory initialized to 0xfffff83f. Mask is the address of this word (just as start is the address of the word in memory containing the machine code for that lw instruction).
