ABSTRACT:
A microprocessor, including a plurality of registers and an instruction execution module which is adapted to process a sequence of conditional tests. The module uses an instruction set that has the following instructions:A test-and-condition instruction which evaluates each of the conditional tests as true or false and responsive thereto sets respective values in the registers.A priority-test-branch instruction, which causes the instruction execution module, responsive to one of the conditional tests evaluating as true and to the respective values in the registers, to execute a priority code module.A combination-test-branch instruction, which causes the instruction execution module, responsive to evaluations of the conditional tests and to the respective values in the registers, to execute a combination code module.
