Question
Download Solution PDFIn the case of, Zero-address instruction method the operands are stored in __________.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is Push down stack.
Key Points
- In the zero-address instruction method, also known as stack-based addressing, the operands are implicitly on top of the stack.
- This means that there is no need to specify operand addresses in the instruction itself.
- Operations are performed on the topmost elements of the stack, and the result is pushed back onto the stack.
- Examples of machines using this method include some early computers and certain virtual machines like the Java Virtual Machine (JVM).
Additional Information
- Zero-address instructions are very compact, as they do not require additional fields for operand addresses.
- This method relies heavily on a stack data structure, which simplifies the design of the instruction set and the hardware implementation.
- Zero-address instructions are often used in conjunction with high-level programming languages that use a stack-based evaluation model.
- Using a stack for operations can lead to efficient use of memory and can simplify the process of handling function calls and recursion.
