In this assignment you will be building an implementation of the hypothetical machine simulator like the one discussed in chapter 1 of our textbook and that you worked on for the first written assignment. The goal is to become better familiar with some fundamental hardware concepts that we rely on when building operating system components in this class. Another goal is to familiarize you with the structure of the assignments you need to complete for this class. Questions:
1. What is the purpose of a standard fetch-execute cycle in a computing system?
2. How does a computing system operate at the hardware level to translate and execute instructions?
3. How can test driven development help you to create and debug your code?
Objectives:
Familiarize ourselves with test driven development and developing software to pass unit tests.
Become familiar with the class assignment structure of unit tests and system tests.
Refresh our understanding of basics of how computing systems operate at a hardware level, by studying in more detail the Hypothetical Machine from our Stallings textbook, and implementing a working simulation of this hypothetical computing system.

Write a new lc-3 trap subroutine (i. e. a subroutine that will be invoked via the trap instruction) that will receive a numeric digit entered at the keyboard (i. e. an ascii character), echo it to the screen, and return in r0 the corresponding numeric value: so if the user types the digit '7', the character '7' will appear on the screen, but the value returned in r0 will be b0000 0000 0000 0111 (#7) you may not use any trap calls in your code - you must implement the "polling" code that interrogates the keyboard status and data registers. ; getnum_tsr ; a subroutine for obtaining a numeric value ; given ascii numeric digit input to keyboard. ; the numeric digit is echoed to the console (e. g. '7' = b0000 0000 0011 0111), ; but the value returned in r0 is the actual numeric value ; corresponding to the digit (e. g. b0000 0000 0000 0111 =
