The second operand is added to the first operand, and the sum is placed in the first-operand location.
Addition is performed by adding all 32 bits of both operands. If the carry out of the sign-bit position and the carry out of the high-order numeric bit position agree, the sum is satisfactory; if they disagree, an overflow occurs. The sign bit is not changed after the overflow. A positive overflow yields a negative final sum, and a negative overflow results in ; positive sum. The overflow causes a program interruption when the fixed-point overflow mask bit is one.
Resulting Condition Code:
0 ~ Sum is zero
1 ~ Sum is less than zero
2 ~ Sum is greater than zero
3 ~ Overflow
Program Exceptions:
Access (fetch, operand 2 of A only)
Fixed-Point Overflow
Programming Note:
In two's-complement notation a zero result is always positive.
