Summing an Integer Array There's hardly any task more common in beginning programming than calculating the sum of the elements in an array. In assembly language, you would follow these steps: 1. Assign the array's address to a register that will serve as an indexed operand. 2. Initialize the loop counter to the length of the array. 3. Assign zero to the register that accumulates the sum. 4. Create a label to mark the beginning of the loop. 5. In the loop body, add a single array element to the sum. 6. Point to the next array element 7. Use a LOOP instruction to repeat the loop.
