Chapter 6, Problem 6.30E

(The Sieve of Eratosthenes) A prime integer is any integer greater than 1 that can be divided evenly only by itself and 1. The Sieve of Eratosthenes is a method of finding prime numbers. It works as follows:

  1. Create an array with all elements initialized to 1 (true). Array elements with prime indices will remain 1. All other array elements will eventually be set to zero.
  2. Starting with array index 2 (index 1 is not prime), every time an array element is found whose value is 1, loop through the remainder of the array and set to zero every element whose index is a multiple of the index for the element with value 1. For array index 2, all elements beyond 2 in the array that are multiples of 2 will be set to zero (indices 4, 6, 8, 10, and so on.). For array index 3, all elements beyond 3 in the array that are multiples of 3 will be set to zero (indices 6, 9, 12, 15, and so on.).

When this process is complete, the array elements that are still set to 1 indicate that the index is a prime number. Write a program that uses an array of 1,000 elements to determine and print the prime numbers between 1 and 999. Ignore element 0 of the array.

Assume that a string of name & surname is saved in S. The alphabetical characters in S can be in lowercase and/or uppercase letters. Name and surname are assumed to be separated by a space character and the string ends with a full stop "." character. Write an assembly language program that will copy the name to NAME in lowercase and the surname to SNAME in uppercase letters. Assume that name and/or surname cannot exceed 20 characters. The program should be general and work with every possible string with name & surname. However, you can consider the data segment definition given below in your program. .DATA S DB 'Mahmoud Obaid." NAME DB 20 DUP(?) SNAME DB 20 DUP(?) Hint: Uppercase characters are ordered between 'A' (41H) and 'Z' (5AH) and lowercase characters are ordered between 'a' (61H) and 'z' (7AH) in the in the ASCII Code table. For lowercase letters, bit 5 (d5) of the ASCII code is 1 where for uppercase letters it is 0. For example, Letter 'h' Binary ASCII 01101000 68H 'H'…
