Here's an example

        .data
array1:     .space  12              #  declare 12 bytes of storage to hold array of 3 integers
        .text
__start:    la  $t0, array1     #  load base address of array into register $t0
        li  $t1, 5                  #  $t1 = 5   ("load immediate")
        sw $t1, ($t0)                #  first array element set to 5; indirect addressing
        li $t1, 13                  #   $t1 = 13
        sw $t1, 4($t0)           #  second array element set to 13
        li $t1, -7                  #   $t1 = -7
        sw $t1, 8($t0)           #  third array element set to -7
        done
