As part of my Computer Systems and Architecture class at Northern Illinois University, we learned about the MARIE CPU architecture. MARIE is a a theoretical CPU architecture designed specifically to be used in educational environments.

To deepen my understanding of MARIE and hopefully assist with my homework, I decided to create a simulator for it. What started as a simple project quickly evolved into a full simulator and assembler with its own assembly language. Due to my experience with IBM Assembler, the assembly language I designed is heavily inspired by it.

This project provided me with valuable insights into how computers operate at the most fundamental level, and was a very fun challenge.
