Heres another mips question. The board im using is a

pic$32$mm$0064$gpl$036.$ So ive gotton the leds to flash hurray. However i cant get the on board switches to change the function. As always thankyou. Also syscall cant be used and branch instructions have to be layed out well. Also can each step be explained clearly plz$.$ As that helps me alot on whats exactly going on$.$

the attached photo has the code templates aswell.

The problem itself:

Initially, both LEDs blink simultaneously, changing approximately every $0\mathrm{.}5$ second.

Use PortTest$3.$S as a template because it contains the required configuration for switches and LEDs.

Use the delay loop in PortTest$1.$S to implement $0\mathrm{.}5$ sec period. Note that you can keep two delay loops, one for $0\mathrm{.}5$ sec and the other for switch debouncing, or use a single delay loop with a delay amount as an argument.

Pressing S$2$ at any point should toggle whether the LEDs are blinking. Pressing the switch the first time pauses blinking; pressing it again restarts$/$resumes blinking. When paused, one or both LEDs may be off, depending on the mode of operation described below.

Pressing S$1$ should change between three modes of operation, which are:

LEDs blinking simultaneously $($initial$)$

Only LED$1$ blinking, with LED$2$ paused $($either on or off$)$

Only LED$2$ blinking, with LED$1$ paused $($either on or off$)$
