How can I initialize an array in MIPS?

In my previous question, I inquired about converting the MAX_ARRAY() function into MIPS. I have completed that task. Now, I wish to initialize an array in my program. How might I achieve this?

       addi  $t1,$zero, 0   # initialize index i to 0
 loop: add   $t1,$t1,1         # increment index i by 1
       beq   $t1,$s2,done   # if all elements examined, quit
       add   $t2,$t1,$t1    # compute 2i in $t2
       add   $t2,$t2,$t2    # compute 4i in $t2 
       add   $t2,$t2,$s1    # form address of A[i] in $t2 
       lw    $t3,0($t2) # load value of A[i] into $t3
       slt   $t4,$t0,$t3    # maximum < A[i]?开发者_开发问答
       beq   $t4,$zero,loop # if not, repeat with no change
       addi  $t0,$t3,0         # if so, A[i] is the new maximum 
       j     loop       # change completed; now repeat
 done:
