TIS-100 | Self-Test Diagnostic
TIS-100 is an open-ended programming game by Zachtronics, the creators of SpaceChem and Infinifactory, in which you rewrite corrupted code segments to repair the TIS-100 and unlock its secrets. It’s the assembly language programming game you never asked for!
Tasks
For the first challenge “Self-Test Diagnostic” we need to complete the following task:
- Read a value from IN.X and write the value to OUT.X.
- Read a value from IN.A and write the value to OUT.A.
Solution
This challenge will help you understand how to transfer input data from one node to another. IN.X sends data to node #1 and needs to be transfered to OUT.X below node #9. IN.A sends data to node #4 and needs to be transfered to OUT.A below node #12. To solve for Ouput.X, we need to MOV the data being inputed from IN.X which is above node #1 UP and move it DOWN to node #5 and so on and so forth. The sequence of commands to transfer IN.X to OUT.X is:
MOV UP, DOWN #N1
MOV UP, DOWN #N5
MOV UP, DOWN #N9To solve for Ouput.A we have to work around node #8 since there is a communcation failure and can not be accessed. The sequence of commands to solve for OUT.A are:
MOV UP, LEFT #N4
MOV RIGHT, DOWN #N3
MOV UP, DOWN #N7
MOV UP, RIGHT #N11
MOV LEFT, DOWN #N12
After completing the following sequences, you can now press F5 to run and solve the program!
