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) Given this assembly language, write a program that puts the first 20 prime numbers in memory cells 0..19

**How it works:** 1. **Initialization:** Starts with candidate number 2 (the first prime) 2. **Prime Check:** - Special case for 2 (only even prime) - Checks odd numbers starting from 3 - Efficiently tests divisors up to √n (using divisor² > n) 3. **Storage:** Stores primes sequentially in memory as they're found 4. **Optimization:** After 2, only checks odd numbers (increments by 2) 5. **Termination:** Stops after finding and storing 20 primes The program uses registers for: - R1: Prime count - R2: Current candidate number - R3: Memory index - R4-R7: Temporary calculations and flags The HCF instruction gracefully stops the program once all 20 primes are stored.
