I can only assume that Mr. Failforce is misinterpreting the naming of Intel's condition flags as a statement that anything not explicitly named "overflow" is not an overflow. So let's have a look at the ia32 developer's manual, shall we?
CF (bit 0) Carry flag — Set if an arithmetic operation generates a carry or a borrow out of the most-significant bit of the result; cleared otherwise. This flag indicates an overflow condition for unsigned-integer arithmetic. It is also used in multiple-precision arithmetic.
OF (bit 11) Overflow flag — Set if the integer result is too large a positive number or too small a negative number (excluding the sign-bit) to fit in the destination operand; cleared otherwise. This flag indicates an overflow condition for signed-integer (two’s complement) arithmetic.
No, an overflow is represented by the OVERFLOW FLAG, you fucking retard. The carry bit has a positive value when the sum of 2 binary values are greater than what a register can represent. Then, you can move the carry to another register, and you can store the correct result in 2 registers (double) or you can omit the carry and get a wrong result (single).
Now go outside, take some gasoline & matches, and combust yourself. You are the cancer that is killing /prog/
>>49-51 Fuuuuck.
It's been a while since I last saw someone get so thoroughly defeated over the Internet. This is why no one sane makes serious posts with a name on /prog/.
Hijacking this thread for a request, does anyone have a link to the thread with the SQL dump of world4ch?
Can't find what I want even with site:dis.4chan.org inurl:prog in the keywords, ever since we got taken off on the main page by default, Google started hating us.
