CPSC1050 Lab 3

This document provides instructions for Lab 3, which focuses on analyzing the fetch-execute cycle of computers using a "Super Simple CPU" applet. Students are asked to complete exercises in a PDF manual, then trace two programs using the applet and record the values of registers and memory locations after each instruction in a table. The lab aims to help students analyze machine language and assembly language programs.

• analyze assembly language programs

Lab Instructions

1. Open "Lab 7 Computer Cycling" (Lab7_Manual.pdf) and the related Applet (Super
Simple CPU).
2. Review the Activity part of the lab and learn how Super Simple CPU works.
3. Write your complete work to answer the following Lab Questions in a text editor (e.g.,
Microsoft Word). If there is a screenshot, it must be copied to your document.
