ARM Assembler Using Python
Abstract
An assembler is a programme that converts fundamental computer instructions into a bit pattern that can be used by the comp uter's processor to perform basic functions. These instructions are referred to as "assembler language" by some and "assembly language" by others. The ARM (Advanced RISC Machine) assembler is implemented in Python scripting language in this project. Assembly code is executed by processors inside a native executable, which is a low-level programming language that directly manipulates registers and memory. Assembly code is preserved as binary data in its assembled form, and there exist processor manuals that explain how to convert each instruction into bytes of data. Because it is a RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computing) processor, ARM has a smaller instruction set (100 or fewer instructions) and more general-purpose registers than CISC. Unlike Intel, ARM uses only register-based instructions and a Load/Store memory paradigm for memory access, meaning that only Load/Store instructions can access memory.
This means that on an ARM processor, incrementing a 32-bit number at a specific memory location would necessitate three different types of instructions (load, increment, and store) to load the value into a register, increment it within the register, and then save it back to memory from the register.
