Question

1. (1 point) Which flag is set when the result of an unsigned arithmetic operation is too large to fit into the destination? 2. (1 point) Which flag is set when the result of a signed arithmetic operation is either too large or too small to fit into the destination? 3. (1 point) Which flag is set when an arithmetic or logical operation generates a negative result?

Answer 1

Answer:

(1) Carry flag (2) Overflow flag (3) Sign or negative Flag

Explanation:

Solution

(1) The carry flag : It refers to the adding or subtracting. a two registers has a borrow or carry bit

(2) The over flow flag: This flag specify that a sign bit has been modified during subtracting or adding of operations

(3) The sign flag: This is also called a negative sign flag is a single bit status in a register that specify whether the last mathematical operations  generated a value to know if the most significant bit was set.
