1Conceptual Review

  1. True or False: Types are associated with declaration in C (normally), but are associated with instructions (operators) in RISC-V.

Show Answer

True. See Table 1.

  1. True or False: Since there are only 32 registers, we can’t write RISC-V for C expressions that contain > 32 variables.

Show Answer

False. We have seen a few examples on how to break up longer equations to smaller ones already.

  1. True or False: If p (stored in x9) were a pointer to an array of ints, then p++; would be translated to addi x9,x9, 1.

Solution

False. Don’t forget that ints are 4 bytes wide on RV32I, so instruction would be addi x9, x9, 4.
