A simple calculator written in MIPS. A college assignment.
The program can be executed on three different platforms. Each of which is described in one of the following sections.
The source for this platform is available in main.s. It is written for
the N64 ABI of MIPS in the GNU Assembler syntax.
The following programs need to be available in PATH:
qemu-mips64el.
The GCC Cross Compiler Toolchain for the MIPS N64 Little Endian target and the MIPS musl Libc library are also needed as a dependency, but they will be automatically downloaded the first time the program is built.
To build the program, execute:
make
To build and run the program, execute:
make run
The following article describes the process of writing, compiling, and running MIPS binaries on Linux.
The source for this platform is available in mainMARS.s. It is written
for the 32 bit version of MIPS in the MARS syntax. Moreover, it uses the
syscall provided by MARS.
The following programs need to be available in PATH:
mars-mips.
To run the program, execute:
make runMARS
The source for this platform is generated automatically from the MARS source at run-time by passing the MARS source through a preprocesssor.
The following programs need to be available in PATH:
spim.
The mars-preprocessor program is also needed as
a dependency, but it will be automatically downloaded the first time
the program is run.
To run the program, execute:
make runSPIM
