What flag indicates that an arithmetic result is zero?

In what condition is the overflow flag set?
Consider cases where numbers go beyond their limits.

True or False: The carry flag is relevant in signed arithmetic.
Think about the goals of signed versus unsigned arithmetic.
You have two signed 4-bit numbers: 0111 (7 in decimal) and 1001 (-7). Add them, and describe the resulting flags.
Focus on the outcome of the addition and its effects on the state of the flags.
During an addition of 1001 (-7 in two's complement) and 1000 (-8), an overflow occurs. Discuss the implications and which flags are affected.
Reflect on what happens when operations yield unexpected results due to limits.
