Question # 2. Short Programming Problems (25 points)

a. Write a sequence of two instructions that copies bits 0-5 from AL to bits 0-5 in BL. Bits 6-7 in BL should be
cleared, and AL should be unchanged. (5pts)







b. Write a sequence of two instructions that copies the integer in bits 4-7 from the AL register into bits 0-3 of the BL
register. The upper 4 bits of AL will be cleared, as will the upper 4 bits of BL. . (5pts)




3
c. Code instructions that jump to the label L1 when either bit 2 or 3 is set in the DL register (do not modify DL).
(5pts)





d. Write instructions that implement the following pseudo-code using conditional jump instructions. Do not use the
.IF directive. Assume that integers are signed. (5pts)

if (eax > ecx )
mov dl, +7
else
mov dl, -2













e. Implement the following pseudo-code with assembly language statements without using the .WHILE, the .IF or
any other directive. (5pts)

while ( int2 >= int1 )
{ add ebx, 3
if ( ebx > int2 )
mov ebx, 4
else
mov ebx, int1
}

arrayB byte 60h, 70h, 10h, 50h, 40h
.code
main proc
mov bx, 0A59Dh
movzx eax, bx ; eax =
movzx edx, bl ; edx =
mov bx, 0C45Fh
movsx eax, bx ; eax =
movsx cx, bl ; cx =

Question # 5. Programming (10 points) --- use the back of the page if needed ----

Using the following table as a guide, write a program that asks the user to enter an integer test score between 0 and 100.
The program should display the appropriate letter grade:

Score Range Letter Grade
90 to 100 A
80 to 89 B
70 to 79 C
60 to 69 D
0 to 59 F

Hint: You may use the pseudo .IF, .ELSEIF,.ELSE and .ENDIF directives.

GOOD LUCK
