All arithmetic and
logical instructions are
carried out by the ALU.
An eight bit instruction
informs the ALU which
operation it is to carry
out.
One number to be
manipulated comes from
the accumulator, the
other from memory or
another register.
The result is stored in
the accumulator.
Flags in the status
register are set to
indicate the result,
such as negative etc.
