1. Show a one-word PDP-11 program that writes all
of memory, in reverse order.
MOV -(PC),-(PC)
I remember this one from late-Soviet/early-Russian BK0010 hacker clubs...
BK0010 was a "home computer" built around 1801VM1 microprocessor, a
Soviet implementation of basic PDP-11 instruction set. No idea exactly
which DEC model it corresponds to, if any.
2. Show a one-word PDP-11 program that clears all
of memory,
in forward order, halting on completion.
This one I am struggling with - it's been too many decades since I did
any PDP-11 assembly...
