	# avg - computes the integer average of two numbers
avg:

	

	# your code goes here
	

	ret


	# maxabs - returns the number whose absolute value is the largest
maxabs:

	

	# your code goes here


	ret	



	# lookup - returns the character found in string str at location x (str[x])
	#
	# IMPORTANT: characters are one byte long and are tightly packed in
	# memory. You will need to use the byte length registers and movb
	# (otherwise you will grab more than one character). This hold for all
	# of the string functions
lookup:

	
	# your code goes here
	

	ret



	# checksum - performs a simple parity checksum, xoring all of the
	# characters in the string and then summing the 1s.
checksum:

	
	# your code goes here
