3b) Given a sentence, tell me how many letter o’s there are.

3c) Purpose of %rcx is see which character to compare with character with the 0x6f (“o”) .
3d) Goes backwards through str. The loop will repeat itself only if the value in %rcx is less than %rdi
meaning that %rcx should be the number of characters to read starting from the beginning of %rdi.
Within the loop: the call to decq rcx is made leading to the conclusion that the str is being read
backwards.

Mul.s

.globl times

#Multiply two unsigned integers using addition

#The algorithm consists of adding a to the return b times.

times:

#move value 0 into eax or the return

mov $0,%eax

#compare argument in b with 1

#if its less than 1 jump to endloop

#otherwise add edi or argument a to eax

#return to loop

loop:

cmp $1, %esi

jl endloop

add %edi,%eax

dec %esi

jmp loop

#return product of a and b

endloop:

ret
