This Video is on Instructions and Programs - ( Software) - How our programs actually work.
- What does the JUMP instruction do and why might we want to use it? What Structure in your coding experience would invoke a Jump Instruction?
- The addition and jump statement described in the film is how the CPU would execute what kind of structure from your coding experience?
- What kinds of conditional jump are mentioned?
- How does the CPU know when to use a Jump if Negative?
- A level Students - Can you write an AQA Assembly Language program that performs the same task as described in the film - i.e. finding remainders and whole number division.
- How many instructions and memory locations can be accessed when the processor can only deal with an 8 bit instruction length? - Explain why this is the case.
- How many instructions were in the 4004 instruction set?
- How does this (7 above) contrast with modern Core i7 processors?
