language, but it may be easier to first convert the loop into an equivalent while loop,
Given:
for (init-expr; cond-expr; update-expr) {
body
}
do {
body
} while (cond-expr)
init-expr
while (cond-expr) {
body
update-expr
}
goto body_label;
while (cond-expr) {
body_label: body
}
Write a complete MIPS assembly language program which prompts the user to enter a positive integer
n and computes and displays the sum of the squares of the first n positive integers. For example, if n is 6 the program
shall compute and display 1^2 + 2^2 +
3 ^2 + 4^2 + 5^2 + 6^2
. Here is the pseudocode for the program,
Program hw04-03
Function main()
Integer i, n, sum
PrintString("Enter an integer (> 0): ")
n = ReadInt()
For (i = 1, sum = 0; i <= n; ++i)
sum += i * i
End For
PrintString("The sum of the squares of the first ")
PrintInt(n)
PrintString(" positive integers is ")
PrintInt(sum)
Exit()
End Function main
End Program hw04-3
