I'm interested in the Core War program. I have studied both the original documents and Rod's source code. Rod, your source code works (why did you make it .e instead of .ex?). You can probably reduce it by a third by decoding the operand data only once and then executing each instruction. Store the data in SourceAddress, SourceData, DestAddress, DestData, and then let the instruction do the rest of the work. Also, using hexadecimal and bit-operators might simplify your code. I want to do my own implementation, using hexadecimal for opcode coding and using the original definition of the language. I would probably throw in SPL and PCT, though. Those two instructions certainly make for interesting warriors. J. ________________________________________________________ NetZero - We believe in a FREE Internet. Shouldn't you?
