Laboratory 10 [3/31; 4:2; 4:7; 4:9] Introduction to the MIC-1 Simulator

Laboratory 10 is designed to acquaint you with the MIC-1 simulator. Prior to the laboratory do the following:

Make sure that /opt/xtango is in your PATH. Execute
setenv
from the command line and look at the value of the PATH variable to verify that this is the case.
Make a subdirectory called sim.
Copy the files from /usr/local/courses/cs2734/micsim to your sim subdirectory.
Print a copy of the mic.doc file and read it over.
Run the simulator on the default MAC-1 program by typing:
runmic
Write a MAC-1 assembly language program to calculate the 10th Fibonacci number. The Fibonacci sequence is defined by:
```
      f(0) = 1 
      f(1) = 1
      f(n) = f(n-1) + f(n-2)
```
The result should go into the accumulator. (Please use iteration rather than trying to write a recursive program.)
Hand assemble the program into ASCII hex. (If your assembler is working, you can use your assembler to produce the Hex.)
Run the program on the MIC-1 simulator.

In the laboratory you will be asked to demonstrate the correctness of your program by running it on the mic-1 in instruction mode. You will also be asked to demonstrate cycle and subcycle mode.
