Question:
Examine the registers and submit the address of EBP as the answer.
Is very poorly worded, they don’t want the address of the actual pointer…
Real question:
Examine the registers and submit the address contained in EBP as the answer
Me ranting about how stupid the question is:
I had spent the past hour trying to give the byte offset, finding the address offset then trying to work it out awkwhhdbawhbfhawbfhibawahifb
suffering, actually suffering…
I have no clue if it is my fault, but I thought it wanted the address OF the register, why did it want me to give the address the register was holding instead?
its such a stupid question, who read it and thought it was ok? I could’ve carried on learning if I knew they wanted what it was pointing to and not its actual address.
