Chapter 3

A2:	Consider both a very simple statement like A = B and a slightly more complex statement like A = B + C.
A3:	Can a statement lack a label and/or operands?
A4:	Examine all opcodes and directives.
A5:	Disambiguation, ease of change, etc.
A6:	0b101010, 052, 42, 0x2a for the Linux assembler.
A7:	a. Permitted by gcc; b. Seemingly not offered by ecc.
A8:	You will probably find 0x9c, 0x80, 0x03, 0x29, 0x53, 0x04.
A9:	A Unix/Linux assembler would be expected to compute 53.
A10:	30000: 0000 0000 0000 0066 30008: 0000 0000 0000 000C 30010: 0000 0000 0000 0022 here = 0x30000, relocatable; there = 0x68 absolute; this = 0x30008, relocatable; thing = 0xC8, absolute.
A11:	Hint: Use the .quad or data8 directive.
A12:	Compare the number of bundles with the number of actual Itanium instructions that the programmer wrote.
A13:	What do you know about the "structure" of a text file?
A14:	Consider that values for symbols may be found in any of the input object files or in system object libraries.
