Dear all,
Could you please answer a question about memory addressing (the beginning
of book).
there's a text (Data Accessing methods, p. 15):
"For example, if you wanted to access the fourth byte from location 2002,
you
would load your index register with 3 (remember, we start counting at 0)
and set
the multiplier to 1 since you are going a byte at a time. This would get you
location 2005. However, if you wanted to access the fourth word from
location
2002, you would load your index register with 3 and set the multiplier to
4. This
would load from location 2014 - the fourth word."
I don't understand why to access the fourth word I need index 3 and
multiplier 4,
I think I need index register 4 and multiplier 3. Because If I need just
the next word,
I need index register 4 and multiplier 1.
Am I not right?
Thanx in advance!
Andrei
