The time table said that we were having a Mini Project today. I came here wondering what is meant by a Mini Project. When we reached here, Mahesh Sir told that he had prepared a few questions on microprocessor programming as an assignment and he would print it and give it to us in a few minutes time. Meanwhile, we could browse the internet to clear our doubts on microprocessors and get an idea about microprocessor programming.
Soon we were given the set of 8 questions and were asked to form teams of 2 members. Each team had to select 2 questions. The time allotted for completing it was from 9.15 in the morning to 3 in the afternoon. If we could finish the two questions on time, then we could attempt one of the four extra questions. My teammate was Vivek. The questions we selected were to find the nth fibonocci number and to convert a decimal value to binary.
First, we attempted the question on fibonocci. The logic of it was very simple involving just addition. It was just a matter of few minutes before we were done with the question. Then, we started with the question on converting a decimal number to it's binary form. It involved addition, subtraction, multiplication and division processes. But, 8085 microprocessor does not have operations of multiplication and division. So, we had to do it by repeated additions and subtractions. It took us a bit of time to get it right. After a series of mistakes, we finally managed to convert the decimal number entered to it's binary form.
We thought of attempting the extra questions, but by then it was three in the noon and we stopped our programming and went to Mahesh Sir. We were asked to rate our answers and suggest measures to improve ourselves. Then we did the blogging and that was the end of this end at CHPC.
