Question: Refer to the following assembly language program and determine data stored in result at the end of the program. What is the value of W

Refer to the following assembly language program and determine data stored in result at the end of the program. What is the value of W9?
.global _start
_start:
LDR \(\times 5\),= var1//x5 points to var
LDR x6,=result //6 points to result
mov w8,\#7// index for the loop
loop:
LDR w7,[X5]// move value to w7
ANDS W11, W7,\#0x8000//w7 logical AND with 0x8000
B.EQ no_mark //jump if result equal to 0 to no_mark
ADD W9, W9,\#1// add 1 to w9
STRH w7,[X6],\#2// move a short from register to memory
no_mark:
ADD X5, X5,\#2
SUBS W8, W8,\#1//w8= w8-1 and update flags
B.NE loop
LDR x6,=result
// following statements are for exiting the program
mov xo,\#0
mov \( x 8\)\#93
svc 0
.data
|Nar1: .short 22,-1,33,-14,-128,5,7//2 bytes per data
result: .fill 10,2,0//result has 10 locations all equal to 0
