The following describes the specifiable content of operands S1 and D1 for the SQRT/SQRTP instructions.
The number of steps in the SQRT and SQRTP instructions depends on the specified operand. The following describes how to calculate the number of steps.
Number of steps in operand S1 + Number of steps in operand D1 + 1 = Total number of steps in one instruction
For example, calculate the number of steps in the SQRT/SQRTP instructions
(For the number of steps in an operand, refer to the operand settings as follows.)
{Data_1 [0] = 2 steps} + {Result [N] = 3 steps} + {1 step} = 6 steps One last step is included in the instruction. Be sure to add that one step.
