The primary of goal of this homework is to practice the mips assembly language (e. g., arithmetic operation, loop, condition, function, etc.) by programming a simple game. a computer will think a three-digit random number and you will guess and find it out. first of all, the computer randomly generates a three-digit random number, e. g. 1 2 3, 8 3 9, 0 4 5, or 7 3 2. for the sake of simplicity, each digit cannot be duplicated. for example, 1 3 3, 7 2 7, 0 0 9, or 8 8 8 are not allowed. when you guess the number, the computer will response in terms of number of strike(s) and ball(s), e. g., 2 strikes 0 ball. based on the number of strike(s) and ball(s), you will have a clue about the number what the computer is currently thinking. there is a set of rules:  strike(s): the computer will response with a strike, if your input digit and position are matched with computer's. let say, the computer has 4 2 9. if you type 0 1 8, the computer will response with "0 strike", because all your digits and their positions are not matched. if you type 5 2 7, the computer will response with "1 strike", because one of digits (i. e., 2) and its position is matched. if you type 4 3 9, the computer will response with "2 strike
