 Instructions on submitting assignments

• Completely fill out and include the cover page (doc or pdf) with each lab submission. Labs will not be accepted without the cover sheet
• Late submission penalty is 20% lab grade per day late
• The definition for a late lab is if you don't hand in your hardcopy when you walk into your class (or don't submit the softcopy before coming to class) you have a late submission.
• Weekends will be considered as late days.

 Lab Assignment 1: Due Monday Oct 1: Hamming Distance

 Lab Assignment 2: Due Monday Oct 8: Processing Integers

 Lab Assignment 3: Due Monday Oct 22: Constructing Floats

• Along with the requirements mentioned in the pdf document above, print the largest and smallest floating point number on screen as well as the sum of all integers in the file. Use the floating point unit's integer instructions to do the addition of all integers and print out the sum as a floating point number. For printing floating point numbers in the output file use %f with printf
