- #write a program that is going to take user input of two numbers (test it only with the 1st # > 2nd #) and then
- #and then output: the sum/difference/quotient/product is and then actually do it, using the functions from the appendix
- #furthermore when I am done, make it do an error message if 1st # < 2nd #
- .globl main
- .text
- main:
- #copied from the first program
- li $v0, 4 #we're telling the program that we are going to be outputting a string and loading it immediately
- la $a0, prompt_first_number #we're telling the program where to look for our message that we defined at the bottom of the program
- syscall #go do it
- #now, we should read in an integer as done by the user, with syscall 5
- li $v0, 5 #syscall for code 5 (reading in an integer)
- syscall #go do it
- move $t0, $v0 #moving the stored integer from $v0 to $t0 so that we can free up the space for the termination code 10
- #we now stored the value that the user input in $t0
- #now for the second number, code is going to be pretty identical
- #we can just copypaste this block because the new value in #v0/#a0 is going to bverwrite the old stuff
- li $v0, 4 #we're telling the program that we are going to be outputting a string and loading it immediately
- la $a0, prompt_second_number #we're telling the program where to look for our message that we defined at the bottom of the program

- ##at this point we have prompted the user for 2 numbers and have stored them in $t0 and $t1
- ##at this point, we want to test the two numbers and give the user an error message if the input is wrong
