What is the program counter in LMC?
It holds the address of the next instruction the little man has to carry out.
What is direct addressing?
Where an operand is specified as a memory address holding the value to be used.
What is immediate addressing?
Where the operand is specified as the actual value explicitly.
Why is it called Little Man Computer?
Because it’s like a little man running about, grabbing instructions and doing all the operations in a computer.
