Opcode Range$0020-$0027
Input FlagsNone
Output FlagsSign Flag, Zero Flag, Overflow Flag, Carry Flag

The Negate Register (NEGR) instruction creates a 2s complement of the value in the specified register, stores the result in the same register, and sets or clears the Sign Flag, Zero Flag, Overflow Flag, and Carry Flag according to the results. The machine computes the 2s complement by inverting the number (e.g. XOR it with $FFFF) and then adding one (1) to the result ((value^$FFFF)+1). Negating 0, for instance, sets the Carry Flag.
