Switch case statements are a substitute for long if statements that compare a variable to several "integral" values ("integral" values are simply values that can be expressed as an integer, such as the value of a char). The basic format for using switch case is outlined below. The value of the variable given into switch is compared to the value following each of the cases, and when one value matches the value of the variable, ...

In general, functions are blocks of code that perform a number of pre-defined commands to accomplish something productive. You can either use the built-in library functions or ...

Back on the Z80 chip, if you wanted to load zero into a register, you XOR'd the register with itself. It gave the right answer, the ones became zeros and the zeros stayed zeros. But why do it in this obscure way, when there was a "move" 0 to the register? The answer is that it only took one byte of memory, and it was faster. If your program had to do it a million ...
