Which of the following system program forgoes the production of object code to generate absolute machine code and load it into the physical main storage location from which it will be executed immediately upon completion of the assembly?
A. two pass assembler
B. load-and-go assembler
C. macroprocessor
D. compiler
Answer: Option B
Which of the following functions is/ are performed by the loader?
A. Allocate space in memory for the programs and resolve symbolic references between object decks
B. Physically place the machine instructions and data into memory
C. Adjust all address dependent locations, such as address constants, to correspond to the allocated space
D. All of the above
A. ASRA
B. LOADA h#OD4E, i
C. STOREA h#014B, d
D. ADDA h#01FE, i
The advantage(s) of incorporating the macro processor into pass 1 is/ are:
A. many functions do not have to be implemented twice
B. Functions are combined and it is not necessary to create intermediate files as output from the macro processor and input to the assembler
C. more flexibility is available to the programmer in which he/she may use all the features of the assembler in conjunction with macros
D. All of the above
A. absolute mode
B. indirect mode
C. immediate mode
D. index mode
