A base register table___________________?
Correct answer: D. is used to remember which of the general-purpose registers are currently available as base registers, and what base addresses they contain
- A. is a term that refers to the control programs of an operating system
- B. allows multiple programs to reside in separate areas of core at the same time
- C. allows the programmer to write base registers and displacements explicitly in the source program
- D. is used to remember which of the general-purpose registers are currently available as base registers, and what base addresses they contain
Explanation
A base register table records which general-purpose registers are being used as base registers and the base addresses stored in them. This helps the assembler calculate addresses using base-register and displacement addressing.
