b) The contents in memory occasionally have to be moved to another area of memory. When that happens, the mailbox references must be adjusted so that the program continues to function properly. Rewrite the LMC code in a) so that it occupies mailboxes 05 through 14 only; mailboxes 01 through 04 will be used by another program, so they can’t be used. Assume that instruction 605 remains in mailbox 00.
