**PNC the 3**

Alright, so PNC3!! So guys the goal is to create a **primereg** in assembly. It should be possible with our current knowledge in assembly. If you would like, and just primereg isn't enough for you by all means go further and do things such as:

  * **primeregb**
  * **primeregs**
  * **primeregbs**
  * **primerega**
  * **primeregba**
  * **primeregboa**

good luck guys! Have fun! \\

** compiling **
<code>
nasm -f elf64 -o pnc3.o pnc3.asm 
ld -o pnc3 pnc3.o 
</code>

** gdb commands **
  * show registers
  * info registers  (shows info on register)
     * this can be shortened as an example to: i r eax
  * set disassembly-flavor intel  (sets assembly flavor up to intel)  
  * break _start:  (start of program, go step by step from here)
  * layout asm
  * ni - next instruction
  * si - step instruction


example of displaying registers: \\
<cli>
break _start \\Breakpoint 1, 0x0000000000400080 in _start ()
(gdb) display/x $rax
1: /x $rax = 0x0
(gdb) display/x $rbx
2: /x $rbx = 0x0
(gdb) display/x $rcx
3: /x $rcx = 0x0
(gdb) display/x $rip
4: /x $rip = 0x400080
(gdb)
si
</cli>
