Maths (Arithmetic): DV41

[NES version, Bank 7]

Name: DV41 [Show more] Type: Subroutine Category: Maths (Arithmetic) Summary: Calculate (P R) = 256 * DELTA / A
Context: See this subroutine in context in the source code References: This subroutine is called as follows: * STARS2 calls DV41

Calculate the following division and remainder: P = DELTA / A R = remainder as a fraction of A, where 1.0 = 255 Another way of saying the above is this: (P R) = 256 * DELTA / A This uses the same shift-and-subtract algorithm as TIS2, but this time we keep the remainder.
Returns: C flag The C flag is cleared
.DV41 STA Q ; Store A in Q LDA DELTA ; Fetch the speed from DELTA into A ; Fall through into DVID4 to do: ; ; (P R) = 256 * A / Q ; = 256 * DELTA / A
