Here is the description of a new assembly language: * 8 registers (R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, R8) that can hold integers. * 1 flag that can hold a boolean value (True or False). * 100 memory addresses (0-99) that can hold integers. * 1 instruction pointer that points to the current instruction being executed. Each instruction is of the form OP ARG1 ARG2 ... where ARGn can be either a register (e.g., R1) or a constant (e.g., 10). Labels are written with a lowercase word followed by colon. The assembly language supports the following instructions: * SET Rx C: Assigns the value C to register Rx. * ADD Rx Ry Rz: Adds the values of Ry and Rz and stores the result in Rx. * (similarly for SUB, MUL, DIV, MOD) * EQ Rx Ry: Sets the flag to True if Rx and Ry are equal, False otherwise. * (similarly for NEQ, LT (Rx < Ry), LTE, GT, GTE) * INC/DEC Rx: Increments/Decrements the value of Rx by one. * JMP L: Jumps to label L unconditionally. * JT/JF (jump if true / jump if false) L: Jumps to label L if the is set or not set. * LOAD Rx M: Loads the value at memory address M into register Rx. * STORE Rx M: Stores the value of register Rx into memory address M. * HCF: Stops the program (with pizzazz) For example here is a program to compute the first 20 square numbers (1, 4, 9, 16, 25, ...): SET R1 0 // Counter for storing squares SET R2 1 // Number to square loop: MUL R3 R2 R2 // R3 = R2 * R2 STORE R3 R1 // Store R3 at address R1 INC R1 // Increment address INC R2 // Increment number SET R3 20 EQ R1 R3 // Check if 20 squares are found JF loop // If not 20 squares found yet, continue finding end: HCF // Stop program Write me a python interpreter `evaluate(str)` that returns the resulting memory state after running the program. For example, `evaluate(program)` should return `[1, 4, 9, 16, 25, ...]` for the above program.

Output

To solve this problem, we need to create an interpreter for a custom assembly language that can execute a given program and return the resulting memory state. The assembly language includes various operations such as arithmetic operations, comparisons, jumps, memory access, and a halt instruction. ### Approach 1. **Parsing the Program**: The input program is parsed into a list of instructions and a dictionary of labels. Labels are identified by lines ending with a colon and are mapped to their corresponding instruction indices. 2. **Simulating Execution**: The interpreter initializes registers, memory, a flag, and an instruction pointer. It processes each instruction sequentially, updating the registers, memory, and flag as needed. The instruction pointer is adjusted based on jumps and conditional jumps. 3. **Handling Instructions**: Each instruction type (arithmetic, comparison, jumps, memory access, etc.) is processed according to its specified behavior. Memory accesses are clamped to valid addresses to prevent out-of-bounds errors. ### Solution Code

### Explanation 1. **Parsing**: The program is split into lines, and each line is processed to separate comments, labels, and instructions. Labels are stored in a dictionary mapping to their instruction indices. 2. **Execution**: The interpreter initializes registers, memory, and other state variables. It processes each instruction in sequence, updating the state based on the instruction type. Arithmetic operations modify registers, comparisons set a flag, and jumps adjust the instruction pointer based on the flag or labels. 3. **Memory Access**: Memory operations (LOAD and STORE) use clamping to ensure addresses are within valid bounds, preventing out-of-bounds errors. The program halts when the HCF instruction is encountered. This approach ensures that the program is executed correctly according to the specified assembly language rules, producing the expected memory state as the result.
