    Study Notes

    RISC-V Logical Operations

    • RISC-V instruction format includes funct7, rs2, rs1, funct3, rd, and opcode for defining operations.
    • The provided instruction corresponds to sub x11, x10, x9.
    • The fields in the instruction are:
      • funct7: 32
      • rs2: 9
      • rs1: 10
      • funct3: 000
      • rd: 11
      • opcode: 51

    Age Conversion

    • An age of 40 in decimal is represented as 28 in hexadecimal.

    Bitwise Operations

    • Initial computers operated on full words; later developments allowed manipulation of bits and fields within words.
    • Logical operations facilitate tasks such as packing and unpacking bits in programming languages and instruction set architectures.
    • Common logical operations include NOT, which can be implemented via XOR with an operand of all ones (FFFF FFFF FFFF FFFF in hexadecimal).

    Shift Operations

    • Shift operations are the first class of logical operations, designed to move bits within a word to the left or right.
    • Empty bits resulting from shifts are filled with 0s.
