Declaring more than one SPIM array causes a syntax error
- by Zack
Below is the beginning of a chunk of SPIM code:
.data
a: .space 20
b: .space 20
.text
set_all:
sw $ra,0($sp)
li $t0,0
li $t1,10
............
Unfortunately, the second array I declare ('b') causes the SPIM interpreter to spit out:
spim: (parser) syntax error on line 3
of file spim.out b: .space 20
^
Similar code works when I only have one array -- it seems to be the second that screws it up. I've prodded at it but can't figure out what it is about that statement that makes it break. Any thoughts? Thanks for any insight.
