Building a 68000 Single Board Computer - Dr Dobb's Demos
I expanded a couple of the programs that I entered from Dr. Dobb's Toolbook of 68000 Programming to run on my TS2 computer under the TUTOR monitor. I added a main program that uses the output routines provided by TUTOR through its trap 14 interface to display output of the routine.
The first is the random number generator routine. The demo lists a series of 32-bit random numbers in decimal. Here is some of the initial output:
TUTOR 1.3 > GO 1058
PHYSICAL ADDRESS=00001058
16807
282475249
1622650073
984943658
1144108930
470211272
101027544
1457850878
1458777923
2007237709
823564440
1115438165
1784484492
74243042
114807987
1137522503
1441282327
16531729
823378840
143542612
The second demo is for the square root routine. It lists the integer square roots of the numbers from 0 to 100 000, displaying the number and its corresponding square root. Here is some of the initial output:
TUTOR 1.3 > GO 10B0
PHYSICAL ADDRESS=000010B0
0 0
1 1
2 1
3 1
4 2
5 2
6 2
7 2
8 2
9 3
10 3
11 3
12 3
13 3
14 3
15 3
16 4
17 4
18 4
19 4
20 4
And here is the final output as it reached 100 000:
99980 316
99981 316
99982 316
99983 316
99984 316
99985 316
99986 316
99987 316
99988 316
99989 316
99990 316
99991 316
99992 316
99993 316
99994 316
99995 316
99996 316
99997 316
99998 316
99999 316
100000 316
