Puzzle for REAL coders (Part 2):
Now taking our algorithms from part one (the multi-branching) and putting them in a loop:


   mov eax, (input value)

Again:



    {Part 1 algorithm}





Target(N):  ; make this the tail code for each branch



    {Output (N)}



  cmp eax, (end value)   ; other kinds of loop end test are good too

  jne Again

  jmp EndT







EndT:

  ret
What is the corelation between input values and the order the branches are executed? What interesting patterns can be generated?

BitRAKE,
I'm not sure whether I live on the same planet with you :) Because I have 20,00% in this elections (yes, 1 vote for nice exercise :grin: ), I would like to ask you for some suggestion, how to break it. Maybe I'm asking for trouble, because I'm not real coder, but I'll try it! :mad:

Yes I did ;) Perhaps is there another way? I think evwr showed the only approach... If he didn't, tell me and I'll think more about the puzzle 1...
