Write a C program using embedded assembler with a function to convert a digit (0 – 15) to the corresponding ASCII character representing the value in hexadecimal. For numbers 0 – 9, the output will be the characters '0' – '9', for numbers 10 – 15 the characters 'A' – 'F'. The entire core of the program must be written in symbolic instruction language; arrays may not be used. You may only use C to print the result. Tip: This piece of C program will do the same thing: character = number < 10 ? number + '0' : number + 55; As a basis, you can use this program again , which increments a variable. Just replace the INC instruction with ADD and add a test (CMP) with some conditional jump.

(For thought) a. What’s an advantage of namespaces? b. What’s a possible disadvantage of namespaces?

A(n) __________ is a storage location implemented in the CPU.

_____ is a CPU design technique in which instruction execution is divided into multiple stages and different instructions can execute in different stages simultaneously.

(Program) Write a program that tests the effectiveness of the rand() library function. Start by initializing 10 counters, such as zerocount, onecount, twocount, and so forth, to 0. Then generate a large number of pseudorandom integers between 0 and 9. Each time 0 occurs, increment zerocount; when 1 occurs, increment onecount; and so on. Finally, display the number of 0s, 1s, 2s, and so on that occurred and the percentage of time they occurred.

A(n) ______ converts a programmers source code into the machine-language instructions consisting of binary digits.

(Data processing) Your professor has asked you to write a C++ program that determines grades at the end of the semester. For each student, identified by an integer number between 1 and 60, four exam grades must be kept, and two final grade averages must be computed. The first grade average is simply the average of all four grades. The second grade average is computed by weighting the four grades as follows: The first grade gets a weight of 0.2, the second grade gets a weight of 0.3, the third grade gets a weight of 0.3, and the fourth grade gets a weight of 0.2. That is, the final grade is computed as follows: 0.2grade1+0.3grade2+0.3grade3+0.2grade4 Using this information, construct a 60-by-7 two-dimensional array, in which the first column is used for the student number, the next four columns for the grades, and the last two columns for the computed final grades. The program’s output should be a display of the data in the completed array. For testing purposes, the professor has provided the following data:

(Practice) Write a C++ program that displays the results of the expressions 3.05.0,7.18.32.2,and3.2/(6.15). Calculate the value of these expressions manually to verify that the displayed values are correct.

Assembly (machine) language programs for most computers use __________ notation to represent memory address values.

In a CPU, _______ arithmetic generally is easier to implement than _______ arithmetic because of a simpler data coding scheme and data manipulation circuitry.
