# Same result as example4, but here a function performs the
# addition operation: int add(int num1, int num2)

# FUNCTION: int add(int num1, int num2)
# Arguments are stored in $a0 and $a1
# Return value is stored in $v0
# Return address is stored in $ra (put there by jal instruction)
# Typical function operation is:
# 1.) Store registers on the stack that we will overwrite
# 2.) Run the function
# 3.) Save the return value
# 4.) Restore registers from the stack
# 5.) Return (jump) to previous location
# Note: This function is longer than it needs to be,
# in order to demonstrate the usual 5 step function process...
add2: # Store registers on the stack that we will overwrite (just $s0)
addi $sp,$sp, -4 # Adjust stack pointer
sw $s0,0($sp) # Save $s0 on the stack
# Run the function
add $s0,$a0,$a1 # Sum = sum + i
# Save the return value in $v0
move $v0,$s0
# Restore overwritten registers from the stack
lw $s0,0($sp)

# Return from function
