Work Step by Step
In Bare Bones, to simulate the statement `copy name1 to name2` using a posttest loop expressed in the form `repeat...until (name equals 0)`, you can use the following code:
```
clear name2
incr name2
clear temp
repeat:
decr name1
incr temp
until (name1 equals 0)
repeat:
decr temp
incr name2
until (temp equals 0)
```
Explanation:
- First, `clear name2` initializes `name2` to zero.
- Then, `incr name2` increments `name2` by 1 to match `name1` (assuming `name1` is already initialized).
- `clear temp` initializes a temporary variable `temp` to zero.
- In the first `repeat` loop:
- `decr name1` decrements `name1` by 1 until it equals zero.
- `incr temp` increments `temp` by 1 for each decrement of `name1`, effectively storing the value of `name1`.
- Once `name1` reaches zero, the loop terminates.
- In the second `repeat` loop:
- `decr temp` decrements `temp` by 1.
- `incr name2` increments `name2` by 1 for each decrement of `temp`, effectively copying the value of `name1` to `name2`.
- This loop continues until `temp` equals zero, ensuring that `name2` contains the same value as `name1`.
