Without any strings this program runs fine. But when I added the block of code where is says "if I take this block out it runs" I get an error where it says "causes ERROR here ". The error I get is "Runtime exception at 0x00400028: address out of range 0x00000002"
I have no idea why I'm getting this error. I don't see how printing a string would give me an error trying to print an int from a stack.
I've been trying to solve this problem for hours and I haven't found much help or resources for MIPS so any help would be greatly appreciated and marked useful.
.data
.align 2
list: .space 40 #an array of 10 ints
blank: .asciiz " "
mess: .asciiz "The values in the array are "
.globl main

jal read
