CS6747 Extra Credit #1 - Get your assembly skillz up to speed! Solution

Instructions:
Compile the hello world C code we saw in class into assembly code Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { if (argc == 2) printf("Hello %s ", argv[1]);
return 0;
}
GCC Command:
gcc -W -Wall -Wextra -Wpedantic -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables -O0 -S -masm=intel hello.c -o hello.s
For each line with an assembly instruction, add a comment explaining what that instruction is doing
Be smart about it! No "moves 2 into eax" Instead say: "the number of args must be 2"
Grade:
