Program Plan Intro

Data movement instructions:

  • The different instructions are been grouped as “instruction classes”.
  • The instructions in a class performs same operation but with different sizes of operand.
  • The “Mov” class denotes data movement instructions that copy data from a source location to a destination.
  • The class has 4 instructions that includes:
    • movb:
      • It copies data from a source location to a destination.
      • It denotes an instruction that operates on 1 byte data size.
    • movw: 
      • It copies data from a source location to a destination.
      • It denotes an instruction that operates on 2 bytes data size.
    • movl:
      • It copies data from a source location to a destination.
      • It denotes an instruction that operates on 4 bytes data size.
    • movq:
      • It copies data from a source location to a destination.
      • It denotes an instruction that operates on 8 bytes data size.

Question 1: (C++ Programming) Why could the following code crash? void Func( int *X ) { if( X ) cout << (*X); }   choices:   A.You can't use asterisks with ints   B.Pointer may be uninitialized   C.It can't, this checks for null   D.Can't have a pointer in an if statement
Language: C Write a C program that allocates memory using the malloc function for an array of size specified by the user at runtime. Assign pseudo-random double values to the array elements, then sort the array using the qsort function. Using the examples from the lecture, define a function that compares numbers of type double. Pass the function address to the qsort function. Use the free function to free up memory.   Problem 1 and Problem 2.
Need help with example 8 please and thank you in c++
