11.3.1.3Comparison Instructions

Each comparison instruction (see Table 11-3) analyzes the stack top element, often in relationship to another operand. Then it reports the result in the Status Word condition code. The basic oper- ations are compare, test (compare with zero) and examine (report tag, sign and normalization).

11.3.1.4Transcendental Instructions

Transcendental instructions (see Table 11-4) perform the core calculations for common trigono- metric, hyperbolic, inverse hyperbolic, logarithmic and exponential functions. Use prologue code to reduce arguments to a range accepted by the instruction. Use epilogue code to adjust the result to the range of the original arguments. The transcendentals operate on the top one or two stack elements and return their results to the stack.
