For a function with prototype long decode2(long x, long y, long z);
GCC generates the following assembly code:

1. decode 2:
2. subq %rdx, %rsi
3. imulq %rsi, %rdi
4. movq %rsi, %rax
5. salq $63, %rax
6. sarq $63, %rax
7. xorq %rdi, %rax
8. ret

Parameters x, y, and z are passed in registers %rdi, %rsi, and %rdx. The code
stores the return value in register %rax.
Write C code for decode2 that will have an effect equivalent to the assembly
code shown.

Me with this program in c++ ! computers represent color by combining sub-colors red, green, and blue (rgb). each sub-color's value can range from 0 to 255. thus (255, 0, 0) is bright red. (130, 0, 130) is a medium purple. (0, 0, 0) is black, (255, 255, 255) is white, and (40, 40, 40) is a dark gray. (130, 50, 130) is a faded purple, due to the (50, 50, 50) gray part. (in other word, equal amounts of red, green, blue yield gray).given values for red, green, and blue, remove the gray part. ex: if the input is 130 50 130, the output is: 80 0 80. thus, find the smallest value, and then subtract it from all three values, thus removing the gray.
