title: MIPS: How to access an array full of zero with loop
body: <p>I have an array like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>r_clues: .word 0 : 512 #  array full of zero
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I do</p>
  
  <pre><code>la $s0, r_clues
  lw $t1, 0($s1)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and I take the address of first <code>4</code> bytes and if i want to take, for example, 4th address i will do </p>
  
  <pre><code>lw $t1, 16($s1)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>because its <code>4(address) * 4(bytes)</code></p>
  
  <p>How i can access to this array with one loop and load word to a register for each <code>8</code> bytes ?</p>
