Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 3, Problem 3.73HW
Explanation of Solution
Given assembly code:
x in %xmm0
find_range:
vxorps %xmm1, %xmm1, %xmm1
vucomiss %xmm1, %xmm0
ja .L5
vucomiss %xmm1, %xmm0
jp .L8
movl $1, %eax
je .L3
.L8:
vucomiss %xmm1, %xmm0
setbe %al
movzbl %al, %eax
addl $2, %eax
ret
.L5:
movl $0, %eax
.L3:
Rep;ret
Explanation:
- The assembly function “find_range” illustrates conditional branching in floating point.
- It compares a value “x” with 0.
- If value is less than 0, then result is negative.
- If value is greater than 0, then result is positive.
- If value equals 0, then result is zero.
- The instruction “vxorps %xmm1, %xmm1, %xmm1” sets value of “%xmm1” to 0.
- The instruction “vucomiss %xmm1, %xmm0” compares values.
- The instruction “jp .L8” jumps to label “.L8”.
- The instruction “ja .L5” jumps to label “.L5” if first value is greater than second.
- The instruction “movl $0, %eax” moves immediate value to register “%eax”.
- The instruction “movl $1, %eax” moves immediate value to register “%eax”.
Function find_range:
#Define function
range_t find_range(float x) {
__asm__(
"vxorps %xmm1, %xmm1, %xmm1\n\t"
"vucomiss %xmm1, %xmm0\n\t"
"jp .P\n\t"
"ja .A\n\t"
"jb .B\n\t"
"je .E\n\t"

Please help me with this C programming.
Thank you.
Programming language: C++
Implement a main function that profiles the performance of insert (See below the code) and outputs a table showing the average time per insert as the length of the array increases. Make sure your source code is well-commented, consistently formatted, uses no magic numbers/values, follows programming best-practices, and is ANSI-compliant. It is expected to have the program output
