Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
You have a microprogram with an explicit jump to instruction B if the zero flag is set and an implicit jump if the flag is not set. How would you structure this behavior? What potential issues could arise?
💡 Hint: Consider how you might structure flow control using conditionals.
Design a scenario where implicit jumps lead to optimizing a program with multiple arithmetic operations. Explain how this reduces redundancy in instruction.
💡 Hint: Think about situations where operations can be similar yet feature different outcomes.
