CS253 Study Pages

Start with the architecture study guide. The other pages are linked from it, and each one also works on its own.

• Architecture study guideNumber bases, two's complement, instructions, shifts, bitwise operations, Horner's method, overflow, and the practice game
• Parts of a machine instructionaddu $10, $9, $8 split into fields and traced through the ALU
• Base 10 to binaryUnsigned, two's complement, and +n / -n side by side
• Shifts: sll and srlBits moving left and right, with fills and lost bits
• Bitwise AND, OR, XOR, NOTColumn-by-column results with truth tables
• MIPS sandboxWrite or pick a program and step through it one instruction at a time
