write a C progam that implements the program counter of a MIPS mico processor to access a BYTE wide array of main memory and retrive a 32 bit wide instruction. Adapt your program so that the program counter can deal with jumps to and return from process(ie alter the contents of PC)

Well the PC is just going to be an integer which is increased by 4 every instruction. For each count, you need to take the integer value stored in the PC, and use it as an address. Access that address in memory, and extract 32 bits of machine code. Execute the machine code, increment the PC by 4, and repeat. Simple
