CSCI 2333-03 (Exam 3)
The destination operand of the OR instruction cannot be a memory operand. True False
False
Which of the following are true about the PUSH instruction? A. It decrements the stack pointer (by 2 or 4) and copies the operand into the stack at the location pointed to by the stack pointer B. It copies the operand into the stack at the location pointed to by the stack pointer, and then decrements the stack pointer (by 2 or 4). C. It increments the stack pointer (by 2 or 4) and copies the operand into the stack at the location pointed to by the stack pointer. D. It increments the stack pointer by 1 and copies the operand into the stack at the location pointed to by the stack pointer.
A. It decrements the stack pointer (by 2 or 4) and copies the operand into the stack at the location pointed to by the stack pointer

Mark all correct) A. mov edx,20h push edx mov ecx,10h push ecx pop ebx pop edx B. push 30h push 10h push 20h pop edx pop ebx pop eax C. push 20h mov ecx,10h push ecx pop eax pop ebx D. A and B
D. A and B
What will be the value of ECX when the following sequence of instructions has executed? push 5 push 10 pop ebx pop eax pop ecx A. 5 B. 2 C. 6 D. Cannot be determined
D. Cannot be determined
The AND and TEST perform exactly the same operations. True False
False
The ESP register always points to the next available position (NAP) where a new value will be pushed on the stack True False
False
The PUSH instruction copies a value from the stack to an operand before decrementing the stack pointer True False
False
The RET instruction pops the value pointed to by EBP off the stack into the instruction pointer. True False
False
The TEST instruction always alters the destination operand. True False
False
The USES operator, coupled with the PROC directive, lets you list the names of all registers modified within a procedure that you want the values changed after the RET. True False
False
The XOR means as long as one value is 1 the resulting value is also 1. True False
False
A link library contains procedures that have already been assembled into object code. True False
True
A nested procedure call occurs when a called procedure calls another procedure before the first procedure returns True False
True
The AND and OR always clear the Carry and Overflow flags True False
True
The NOT instruction inverts all of the bits in an operand. True False
True
The PUSHAD instruction pushes all the 32-bit general-purpose registers on the stack. True False
True
The Parity flag indicates whether the lowest byte of a destination operand has an even number of 1 bits. True False
True
The RET instruction pops the stack into the instruction pointer. True False
True
When the POP instruction executes, the ESP register is incremented after the value it points to is copied from the stack. True False
True
