1. Use breakpoints and single step to debug the program posted on Moodle in file lab1_a.asm.. The program is supposed to double the variable K 10 times and record the doubled value in K2. The Count variable is used to keep track of how many times we did that. Lines 1-4 is initialization. Lines 5-12 is the loop where K, K2, and Count are calculated. Line 13 is where the program enters self-pointing branch (infinite loop) Create a new assembly project and replace the contents of main.asm by the contents of lab.asm file. Make (build) the program. There should be no assemble time errors. Debug your program by pressing F5. Your debugger dialog will appear. Start/run your program (F5). After few seconds, press the Halt button (F6). This should stop your program at line (13) because of the infinite loop. Look at the data window, you should see that K-10, K2-20 & Count 9. This reveals the problem: Count should be 10 as we doubled K 10 times in the loop but here it shows 9
