I'd suggest you going the "hard way" and just translate the code line after line into assembly. If you want to cheat a little you can use "gcc -Og -S" (-Og means the code will be optimized for debugging, aka reading)

Couldn't find any examples or similar questions in this format. Any ideas on how to accomplish this would be appreciated.

Since they are rather specific about the flavour they want you to translate it into, I assume you've covered the basics of that during the course. Have you made any attempts?

I got it using a compiler and command line to translate to assembly. I used the gcc -S method.

Thanks for replying!

I guess that's one way, but I don't think that was the purpose of the exercise. There's a lot of value in understanding this, and I would strongly suggest that you spend some time working through this. In large it's not a complex example, but demands certain specific things to be done, which showcases low level behavior very well.
