Contributions summary:Zachary implemented a timing tool within the RISC-V assembler and runtime simulator (RARS) project. Their primary focus was on creating a timer that interacts with memory-mapped I/O (MMIO) to generate interrupts. They added the core functionality of the timer, along with the ability to start, pause, and stop the counter. The user also included the addition of a help page and fixed some bugs related to the timer's functionality.
