Question

Implement the following pseudocode in assembly language: if( ebx > ecx and ebx > edx) or ( edx > eax ) then x = 1 else x = 2

a) MOV eax, 1
b) MOV ebx, 2
c) CMP ebx, ecx
d) JMP x

Answer 1

To implement the given pseudocode in assembly language, use the MOV and CMP instructions, and a conditional jump (JMP) to handle the if-else logic.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pseudocode given is implementing a conditional statement in assembly language. To convert it into assembly language, you can use the following steps:

1. MOV eax, 1 (Set eax to 1)
2. MOV ebx, 2 (Set ebx to 2)
3. CMP ebx, ecx (Compare ebx with ecx)
4. JMP x (Jump to label x if the previous comparison is true)
