First time here, i'm a new user and i'm trying to compile some assembly codes but it's not working.
I did a code in C/C++ that calculates the square root using just sum and subtraction, and i tried to convert it to assembly, here goes de code:
main:
mov.w #36,R15 ;put the value i want to calculate the square root in R15
call Square_Root ;call function square root
jmp End
Square_Root:
mov.w #0,R14 ;R14 is a counter 'n' and it's set to zero
tst.w R15 ; if the R15 = 0, go to end_2
jz End_2
;;initial estimative
mov.w R15,R12 ; Here is part of a division algorithm, R12 is the numerator
mov.w #2,R11 ; R11 is the denominator: R12/R11
call Division_1
mov.w R13,R10 ; R13 is the result of the division, put it in R10
While: ; the algorithm for calculating the square root is basically this: x(n+1) = (x(n) + S/x(n))/2, after n+1 iteractions, S is the number i want to calculate the square root, in this case 0x36d
cmp #16,R14 ;compare R14 with 0x16d. The intention here is make a counter that inc up to 16
jeq End_2 ; if R14 = 16 -> jump to end_1
mov.w R15,R12 ; Here goes the division algorithm again, just passing the parameters
mov.w R10,R11 ;
call Division_1
mov.w R13, R9 ; R9 = R13(the result of division)
add.w R10,R9 ; R9 = R9 + R10
mov.w R9,R12 ; Numerator
mov.w #2,R11 ; Denominator
call Division_1 ;
inc.w R14 ; inc R14 in 1
mov.w R13,R10 ; R10 = R13 Result of the last division
jmp While
End_1:
mov.w R10, R15; Put the result of the square root in R15
End_2:
ret
Division_1:
mov.w #0,R13 ; takes the counter to zero
Division_2:
cmp #0,R12 ; Compare R12 with 0
jl End_Division ; if less than zero -> jump to the final of division
jeq End_Division ; -> if equal to zero -> jump to the final of division
sub.w R11,R12 ; R12 = R12 - R11 -> R12 numerator, R11 Denominator
inc.w R13 ; inc the counter
jmp Division_2
End_Division:
ret
End:
jmp $ ;infinity loop
well, i don't know if the code is clear enough, my apologize for that.
the error the iar workbench is giving me is:
User error: Illegal opcode found on address 0x430E
Unable to execute: driver error. After the error occurred, the program counter (PC) was <unknown>.
Thank you for the help.
