4 input MIPS Calculator

Question

Im new to MIPS and my friend practice program is a calculator, instead of allowing users to have 2 inputs(eg. 1 + 2 or 1 * 4) how do allow them to have 4 inputs (eg. 1 + 3 + 3 + 2 or 1 * 4 * 5 * 2). The code below is a working 2 input calculator how do I make it to 4?

#data .data
prompt1: .asciiz "Type out your first number: " prompt2: .asciiz "Type out your second number: " prompt3: .asciiz "Type out your third number: " prompt4: .asciiz "Type out your fourth number: " menu: .asciiz "Now choose which of the operation you want do: 1 for add, 2 for subtract , 3 for multiply: " resultText: .asciiz "Your final result is: "

Answer 1

Pretty much all you want to do is add, subtract or multiply the values from each other one right after another

addProcess:
add $t6,$t0,$t1    
add $t6, $t6, $t8  
add $t6, $t6, $t9  

this adds the two values saving them at $t6, then adds the value at register $t6 to the value at register $t8 while again saving to $t6, then once more.

subtractProcess:
sub $t6,$t0,$t1 
sub $t6,$t6, $t8
sub $t6, $t6, $t9 

multiplicatioProcess:
mul $t6,$t0,$t1 
mul $t6, $t6, $t8
mul $t6, $t6, $t9

Just add these where your single line is, then also add a spot at the top requesting the user enter more values

#asking the user to provide the first number
li $v0, 4     
la $a0, prompt1
syscall      


#the next block of code is for reading the first number provided by the user
li $v0, 5    
syscall      
move $t0, $v0     

#asking the user to provide the second number
li $v0, 4    
la $a0, prompt2    
syscall     

#reading the second number to be provided to the user
li $v0, 5   
syscall      
move $t1, $v0    

#asking the user to provide the third number
li $v0, 4   
la $a0, prompt3    
syscall
  
#reading the second number to be provided to the user
li $v0, 5    
syscall      
move $t8, $v0    

#asking the user to provide the third number
li $v0, 4   
la $a0, prompt4  
syscall      

#reading the second number to be provided to the user
li $v0, 5    
syscall      
move $t9, $v0    

you could also do all of this in the form of a procedure but its more advanced
