Write a program that does the following:
Initialize an accumulator (variable or register) to zero.
Display a prompt to the user: Enter a number:
Use the system call function to read a string into a buffer.
If the first character in your buffer is the New Line character
Go to step 9.
If the first character in your buffer is the minus sign, remember that so you can reverse the sign of the number.
Convert the number to a binary integer*, one digit at a time. If there are any characters other than decimal digits:
If it is not a New Line, show an error message and go back to step 2.
If it is a new line, continue to 7.
Add the binary number to your accumulator.
Go to step 2
Print the sum of the numbers, the total number of valid numbers entered, and the total number of errors.
Exit the program.
Write this program in MIPS assembly language using the MARS simulator.
For example, if the user enters
12
-6
5
-52-1(Your program should mark this as an error, since it contains two minus signs.)
5-2(Error. Minus sign, if present, must be first.)
Your program would print what is shown in red below:
Error: -52-1
Error: 5-2
Sum=11(sum of 12,-6, and 5)
Count of valid numbers =3
Total number of errors: 2
