The system/370 assembler language________________?

Correct answer: C. allows the programmer to write base registers and displacements explicitly in the source program

  • 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

System/370 assembly language permits explicit specification of base registers and displacements in source instructions. Option d describes what assembler bookkeeping, such as USING information, records rather than the language itself.
