Bianca wrote .stringz in LC3 assembly but she doesn't really get how it works. How are strings stored in memory in LC-3 assembly language?

• As a sequence of ASCII characters ending with a zero (null) terminator.

• As a single word that contains the entire text.

• As binary numbers corresponding to each character’s memory address.

• As characters stored in reverse order to optimize access speed.

If R2 contained -3 before execution, which statement is true when the BRp TARGET instruction executes?

• The branch will not be taken because R3 was loaded from memory.

• The branch will not be taken because the last instruction that set condition codes produced a non-positive result.

• The branch will be taken because the store instructions doesn’t set condition codes.

• The branch will always be taken since BRp doesn’t depend on condition codes.
