JNZ & CMP Assembly Instructions

Question

Correct me if I am wrong.

This is my understanding of JNZ and CMP.

JNZ - The jump WILL take place if the Z Fl

Answer 1

JNZ     Jump if Not Zero    ZF=0

Indeed, this is confusing right.

To make it easier to understand, replace Not Zero with Not Set. (Please take note this is for your own understanding)

Hence,

JNZ     Jump if Not Set     ZF=0

Not Set means flag Z = 0. So Jump (Jump if Not Set)

Set means flag Z = 1. So, do NOT Jump
