So, I'm running into an issue when working with the MARIE simulator. Here is the prompt:
define a decimal variable X and set X = 0
define a decimal variable Y and set Y = 0
Input a number in decimal form from the keyboard
store the number in location X
Input a number in decimal form from the keyboard
store the number in location Y
If X > 0, then
X = X + 5
Else
X = Y - 2
Endif
Display X using the output instruction
EDIT: The current code:
org 100
input
store X
input
store Y
load X
skipcond 800
Jump Else
load X
Add A
store X
jump Endif
Else, load Y
Subt B
store X
Endif, Load X
Output
Halt
X, dec 0
Y, dec 0
A, dec 5
B, dec 2
My issue comes from the fact that when you run it, the math isn't coming out correctly. For example, if you input 4 for X, the answer comes out to be 7, when it should be 9. Could anyone point where I am going wrong?
Let me know if this works for you:
org 100
input
store X
input
store Y
load X
skipcond 800
Jump Else
load X
Add Addr
store X
jump Endif
Else, load Y
Subt Subtr
store X
Endif, Load X
Output
Halt
X, dec 0
Y, dec 0
Addr, dec 5
Subtr, dec 2
