execution (through the use of a conditional jump), and functions in programs. Many
instructions will also change the state of digits in a "flags" register. These flags can be
used to influence how a program behaves, since they often indicate the outcome of
various operations. For example, one type of "compare" instruction considers two
values and sets a number in the flags register according to which one is greater. This
flag could then be used by a later instruction to determine program flow.
11. After the execution of the instruction, the entire process repeats, with the
next instruction cycle normally fetching next-in-sequence instruction due to the
incremented value in the program counter. In more complex CPUs than the one
described here, multiple instructions can be fetched, decoded, and executed
simultaneously. This section describes what is generally referred to as a ‘single cycle
data 0patch, which in fact is quite common among the simple CPUs used in many
electronic devices (often called microcontrollers).
