ascii - Determining number of bytes in MIPS code segment -


so, understand mips runs 32-bit , words 8 bits (4 bytes).

if have following code,

.data  .word 5  .asciiz "hi"

i know there 1 word being stored , must 4 bytes, how determine number of bytes in third line? i've asked instructor keeps referencing me following example:

.asciiz "help"

apparently 5 bytes, i'm not able see how or why 5 bytes. appreciate clarification, instructor reluctant share techniques , can't find information on in textbook

.asciiz creates zero-terminated ascii string, i.e. string of ascii characters followed byte value 0 (terminator).

so the number of bytes required number of characters plus 1. hence asciiz "help" -> 5 bytes, , asciiz "hi" -> 3 bytes.

command line - How can a Python program background itself? -

consider following python command-line program. doesn't work because incomplete, think illustrates problem: #!/usr/bin/python3 import multiprocessing pool = multiprocessing.pool() task in expensive_iterator_with_user_interaction(): pool.call_async(expensive_computation, (task,)) pool.close() print("dear user, may press ctrl-z , bg script.") pool.join() thus, problem scripts needs user input while it's launching expensive parallel processes. there moment when user interaction not needed anymore. then, ask user background process shell actions. however, can achieved program itself? (side note: core of problem entanglement of user input firing “expensive computations”. therefore, cannot separate both in 2 scripts, , letting 1 spawning other daemon.) the command screen may you. use screen -l create new session , run application. after inputting data, can press " ctrl-a " , press " d " on keyboard detach session. now...
