What points were the most clear to you? (List up to 3)
- Lots of hardcoding, but its okay here (software brain scared)
- Symbolic references seem like a fun challenge. Im sure Im the only person to say this.
- This is just translation- Instruction X equals value Y. Just a bit more complicated. Spec will help.

What points were the muddiest and you'd like to talk more about? (List up to 3)
- I dont like hardcoding. Magic numbers are bad.
- Are we going to end up optimizing later? Especially since this is a low-power CPU.
Grading comment:
Reflect on what you read.
Give me a sense about what is connecting to existing knowledge
-OR-
Your "ah ha!" moments
-OR-
What is hanging off by itself, not connecting.
I feel like I say this every time- but this is where its getting good. We have the system, we have the language, now lets make the system recognize the language (kinda but not really, you get what I mean). Again calls back to CSCI 306, but we didnt write our own assembler, just explored how it worked. RISC-V, although simple, isnt as simple as this machine. Im worried about my resistance to magic numbers and hardcoding, although thatll be necessary here. I also am not so sure where to start. But thats a later problem.
