Chapter 15.1, Problem 23RQ
Program Plan Intro

Array:

  • An array is a tag type that holds multiple pieces of data as a block.
  • In an array, each element should be of same data type such as BOOL, SINT, or INT.
  • It resides in a neighboring block of the controller’s memory.
  • Arrays are similar to tables of data. In an array, the data can be represented in 1, 2, or 3 dimensional arrays.
  • One element represents a single tag within the array.

Example:

The example for a one-dimensional array is given below: Consider an array named “Sample” which of “INT” data type. Let the size of the array be 6.

Array representation

Programmable Logic Controllers, Chapter 15.1, Problem 23RQ

From the above representation,

  • The tag name is “Sample”.
  • The array can holds “6” integer values, which are represented by “Sample [0]” to “Sample [5]”.

Match each of the assembler routines on the left with the equivalent C function on the right. Write the name of the label (e.g., foo) to the right of the corresponding function. Note: shrq is the logical right shift instruction, and sarq is the arithmetic right shift instruction. foo1: leaq 0(,%rdi, 8), %rax long choice1 (long x) { ret return x - 8 >8; foo3: } movq sarq %rdi, %rax $8, %rax long choice4 (long x) ret { return x*256; } foo4: long choice5 (long x) leaq -8 (%rdi), %rax { ret return x-8; } long choice6 (long x) foo5: { leaq -8 (%rdi), %rax return x+8; shrq $63, %rax } ret
