    Shift the contents of register pair H L by one bit to left

  7. In a multi-processor configuration two coprocessors are connected to host 8086 processor. The instruction sets of the two coprocessors

  8. A.
    must be same
    B.
    may overlap

  12. A.
    B.
    C.
    D.
    None of the above

  13. Consider the following statements

    1. The sign of a floating point number depends on the sign of mantissa only.
    2. If the absolute value of a number is less than 1, the sign of exponent is zero or positive.
    3. With sign bit of mantissa as 0, increasing the exponent from a positive to a more positive value gives a larger floating point number.
