find it hard to relate what they see at the CPU level to what they see in large-scale computer behavior, and that involves input/output devices. 3. Address arithmetic – there needs to be a way for programs to compute the addresses of storage locations they use, instead of always storing and fetching from static locations. The TX-0 used self-modifying code, but that’s probably not a good thing to teach in an introductory course. References 1.
