Instructions:
You are encouraged to work on the problem set in groups and turn
in one problem set for the entire group. Remember to put all
your names on the solution sheet. Also, remember to put the name
of the TA and the time for the discussion section you would like the problem
set turned back to you. Show your work.

How many TRAP service routines can be implemented in the LC-3? Why?
Why must a RET instruction be used to return from a TRAP routine? Why won't
a BRnzp (unconditional BR) instruction work instead?
How many accesses to memory are made during the processing of a TRAP instruction?
Assume that you have the following table in your program:
MASKS .FILL x0001
.FILL x0002
.FILL x0004
.FILL x0008
.FILL x0010
.FILL x0020
.FILL x0040
.FILL x0080
.FILL x0100
.FILL x0200
.FILL x0400
.FILL x0800
.FILL x1000
.FILL x2000
.FILL x4000
.FILL x8000
Write a subroutine CLEAR in LC-3 assembly language that clears
a bit in R0 using the table above. The index of the bit
to clear is specified in R1. R0 and R1
are inputs to the subroutine.
Write a similar subroutine SET that sets the specified bit instead of clearing it.
Hint: You should remember to save and restore any registers your subroutine
uses (the "callee save" convention). Use the RET instruction as
the last instruction in your subroutine (R7 contains the address
of where in the caller to return to.)
Suppose we are writing an algorithm to multiply the elements of an array (unpacked, 16-bit 2's complement numbers), and we are told that a subroutine "mult_all" exists which multiplies four values, and returns the product. The mult_all subroutine assumes the source operands are in R1, R2, R3, R4, and returns the product in R0. For purposes of this assignment, let us assume that the individual values are small enough that the result will always fit in a 16-bit 2's complement register.
Your job: Using this subroutine, write a program to multiply the set of values contained in consecutive locations starting at location x6001. The number of such values is contained in x6000. Store your result at location x7000. Assume there is at least one value in the array(i.e., M[x6000] is greater than 0).
Hint: Feel free to include in your program
