Question

Program the code using MARS simulator;

Loops

Write a program to calculate m ⁿ (m to the power of n).

Sample of input/output

Enter a value for m! 2

Enter a value for n! 3

2 to the power of 3 = 8

Answer 1

Given below is the code for the question. Please do rate the answer if it helped. Thank you.

.data
   msg1: .asciiz "Enter a value for m: "
   msg2: .asciiz "Enter a value for n: "
   outMsg: .asciiz " to the power of "
   equalto: .asciiz " = "
.text
  
   #print string
   li $v0, 4
   la $a0, msg1
   syscall
  
   #read int
   li $v0, 5
   syscall
   move $t0, $v0
  
  
   #print string
   li $v0, 4
   la $a0, msg2
   syscall
  
   #read int
   li $v0, 5
   syscall
   move $t1, $v0
  
   #perform repeated multiplication
   li $t2, 1 #result
   li $t3, 1 #counter
loop:
   bgt $t3, $t1, endloop
   mul $t2, $t2, $t0 #mulitply first number into current result
   add $t3, $t3, 1
   b loop

endloop:
   #display first number
   move $a0, $t0
   li $v0, 1
   syscall
  
   #print string
   li $v0, 4
   la $a0, outMsg
   syscall
  
   #display second number
   move $a0, $t1
   li $v0, 1
   syscall
  
   #print equal to symbol
   li $v0, 4
   la $a0, equalto
   syscall
  
   #display result
   move $a0, $t2
   li $v0, 1
   syscall
  
   #exit
   li $v0, 10
   syscall

output
-----
Enter a value for m: 2
Enter a value for n: 3
2 to the power of 3 = 8
-- program is finished running --

Enter a value for m: 3
Enter a value for n: 2
3 to the power of 2 = 9
