Question

In MIPS

Create array of 11 float numbers, Call the procedures findLargestFloat, findSmallestFloat, and rangeFloat. Range float is the difference between largest float and smallest float. Also, Create a recursive procedure to find the largest (call it findLargestRecursive), to find largest float in array

Answer 1

.data
max: .word 3
temp: .word 1
num: .space 96
input1: .asciiz "Enter a number:\n" #prints the statement
output1: .asciiz "The number that is repeated more often than any other is "
output2: .asciiz " with "
output3: .asciiz " repititions.\n"
output4: .asciiz "The array contains the following: \n"

.text

.globl main
main:
lw $t1, temp # loop counter
lw $t2, max # upper bound
la $t0, num # address of array

Loop:
# print input prompt
la $a0, input1
li $v0, 4   
syscall

# get value from the user
li $v0, 6
syscall

# move user provided value from $f0 to array
s.s $f0, 0($t0)

# move to the next position in the array, increment loop counter
addi $t0, $t0, 4
addi $t1, $t1, 1
ble $t1, $t2, Loop

# restore loop counter, and array address for printing
lw $t1, temp
la $t0, num

# print output prompt
la $a0, output4
li $v0, 4
syscall
print_loop:
# print number from the array
l.s $f12, 0($t0)
li $v0, 2
syscall

# print space
la $a0, 32
li $v0, 11
syscall

# increment loop counter and move to next value
addi $t1, $t1, 1
addi $t0, $t0, 4
ble $t1, $t2, print_loop

======================================================
Here is how it work

Enter a number:
2.3
Enter a number:
3.14
Enter a number:
5.55
The array contains the following:
2.3 3.14 5.55
