Miscellaneous Instructions

There are four small instructions that are very handy but I can't really categorize.

ccf	Compliment Carry Flag - Inverts the carry flag.
cpl	ComPLiment accumulator - Inverts all bits in `a`. If `a` was `%11001111` then it would now be `%00110000`.
neg	NEGate accumulator - If `a` was 2 then it's now -2. See the Two's Compliment Section.
scf	Set Carry Flag - No real reason but just thought I'd tell you. Maybe use it for return conditions on routines, like if there was an error during the routine, it would set the accumulator, then the user could see if there was an error by checking the carry flag.
ldir	LoaD (`de`) with (`hl`), Decrement `bc`, Increment `de` and `hl`, and Repeat until `bc` is zero. It's basically a block copy. It copies `bc` size to copy (amount of bytes from `hl` to `de`). ld hl,source_code ld de,destination_code ld bc,source_code_end-source_code ldir
