Question

Suppose that a program's data and executable code require 1024 bytes of memory. A new section of code must be added; it will be used with various values 67 times during the execution of a program. When implemented as a macro, the macro code requires 79 bytes of memory. When implemented as a procedure, the procedure code requires 124 bytes (including parameter-passing, etc.), and each procedure call requires 6 bytes.

How many bytes of memory will the entire program require if the new code is added as a macro?

Explanation / Answer

If new code is added as a macro in entire program

proc: 1024 + (39 * 9) + 104 = 1479

macro: 1024 + (39 *74) = 3910
