Abstract
The Z80 microprocessor has eight very powerful block instructions which allow operations on blocks of consecutive memory bytes. Four of the instructions are block transfer instructions which allow the contents of one block of memory bytes to be transferred to another block of memory; the other four instructions are block search instructions which allow a block of memory bytes to be searched for one of the bytes containing a specified value.
