in this assignment, you will implement a word search function using MIPS assembly

language in the MARS simulator. The program will prompt the user to input a string

and a word to search for. It will then scan the string for occurrences of the word and

return the total number of matches and their positions. For this task, a word starts

with an alphabetic character $($A$-$Z or a$-$z$)$ and ends when a non$-$alphabetic character is

encountered.

Example run:

Enter a string: Welcome to the programming world! Who knew assembly programming could

be this wildly fun?

Enter a word to search for: programming

Word found!

Occurrences: $2$

Found at index: $15,52$
