Think about how decisions are made in programming.
Given the following sequence of operations: A=10, B=5, perform A-B. If the resulting flag states are 'Zero' and 'Carry,' describe the flow of execution in a hypothetical program.
Focus on what happens with the subtraction and how flags affect program control.
Create a conditional instruction sequence for a loop that increments a counter until it reaches 10. Describe how flags are used in this loop.
Visualize the purpose of the flags at each iteration.
