Hey everyone,

I am trying to create a random number generator with MIPS assembly. I have most of the code written, I just need to change my set number for a guessing game to a random number. I also want to ask the user if they'd like to play again. The formula I am using is r=(r*3+1)%10. User must enter a seed. How do I write this?

Here is my code:

.data

guessString: .asciiz "\nGuess a number: "
tooHigh: .asciiz "Your guess is too high. Guess lower."
tooLow: .asciiz "Your guess is too low. Guess higher."
correctGuess: .asciiz "Your guess is correct!"
outOfGuesses: .asciiz "Out of guesses!"
guessesRemaining: .asciiz "\nNumber of guesses remaining: "
instructions: .asciiz "Welcome. You have 10 tries to guess\n the correct number between 1 - 1000."
quit: .asciiz "To quit enter 0."
