What does a jump instruction do?
Think about how reading a map can lead you to a new location.
What are the two types of jump instructions?
Consider if a condition must be met for the jump to occur.
What type of jump always transfers control regardless of conditions?
Remember the distinction between conditions and certain actions.
True or False: The program counter (PC) always increments after a jump instruction is executed.
Think about the role of jumps and their redirecting nature.
You are tasked with optimizing a program that contains both conditional and unconditional jumps. Describe how you would assess and potentially reduce the number of jumps to streamline the execution flow.
Consider the significance of each jump in terms of logic and flow.
Given an example of a program that relies heavily on conditional jumps, analyze how the program would behave if all conditional jumps were converted to unconditional jumps.
Reflect on how conditions regulate flow versus arbitrary actions.
