This is using MARS (MIPS Simulator)

I have to create a simulator that takes a random number and the user has to guess it. I have this code thus far but I don't know how to implicate a limited number of guesses (5 guesses limit) and display the prompt that the user was not able to guess the number. I am able to get the code to work for successes but not failures. HELP! This is my current code thus far and an example of what the output should be below the code.

.data strCold: .asciiz "You're cold. " strWarm: .asciiz "You're warm. " strEnter: .asciiz "Enter a number between 0 and 99: " strHigh: .asciiz "Your guess is too high. " strLow: .asciiz "Your guess is too low. " strLose: .asciiz "You lose. The number was: " strWin: .asciiz "Congratulations! You win!" .text .globl main main: li a1, 100 li v0, 42 #random syscall move t0,a0

loop: li v0, 4 la a0, strEnter #it will print prompt strEnter syscall

li v0, 5 syscall #ask user input move t1, v0 blt v0,t0, tooSmall bgt v0,t0,tooBig beq v0,t0,Found

tooSmall: li v0,4 la a0, strLow #it will print prompt strLow syscall j checkHowClose

tooBig: li v0,4 la a0, strHigh #it will print prompt strHigh syscall j checkHowClose

checkHowClose: sub t1, t1, t0 bgez t1, positive mul t1, t1, -1

positive: ble t1, 10, warm li v0, 4 la a0, strCold syscall j loop

warm: li v0, 4 la a0, strWarm syscall j loop

Found: li v0, 4 la a0, strWin #it will print prompt strWin syscall

Output:

Enter a number between 0 and 99: 50 Your guess is too high. You're cold. Enter a number between 0 and 99: 25 Your guess is too high. You're cold. Enter a number between 0 and 99: 12 Your guess is too high. You're warm! Enter a number between 0 and 99: 8 Your guess is too low. You're warm! Enter a number between 0 and 99: 10 Your guess is too low. You're warm! You lose. The number was: 11 -- program is finished running --
