Revision as of 15:00, 1 August 2022
Binary-Coded Decimal (or BCD for short) is a method of representing decimal numbers by storing what appears to be a decimal number but is actually stored as hexadecimal. Many CISC CPUs (e.g. X86 Assembly have special hardware routines for displaying these kinds of numbers.) On low-level hardware, such as 7-segment displays, binary-coded decimal is very important for outputting data in a format the end user can understand.
- Task
Use your language's built-in BCD functions, OR create your own conversion function, that converts an addition of hexadecimal numbers to binary-coded decimal. You should get the following results with these test cases:
- 0x19 + 1 = 0x20
- 0x30 - 1 = 0x29
- 0x99 + 1 = 0x100
- Bonus Points
Demonstrate the above test cases in both "packed BCD" (two digits per byte) and "unpacked BCD" (one digit per byte).
6502 Assembly
Doesn't work with: Ricoh 2A03
The 6502 is a bit different in that it has a special operating mode where all addition and subtraction is handled as binary-coded decimal. Like the 68000, this must be invoked ahead of time, rather than using the Intel method of doing the math normally and then correcting it after the fact. (This special operating mode won't work on the aforementioned Ricoh 2A03, which performs math in "normal" mode even if the decimal flag is set.)
<lang 6502asm>sed ;set decimal flag; now all math is BCD lda #$19 clc adc #1 cld ;chances are, PrintHex won't work properly when in decimal mode. JSR PrintHex ;unimplemented print routine JSR NewLine
sed lda #$30 sec sbc #1 cld jsr PrintHex JSR NewLine
sed lda #$99 clc adc #1 pha lda #0 adc #0 ;adds the carry cld jsr PrintHex pla jsr PrintHex jsr NewLine rts ;return to basic</lang>
- Output:
20 29 0100
68000 Assembly
The 68000 has special mathematics commands for binary-coded decimal. However, they only work at byte length, and cannot use immediate operands. Even adding by 1 this way requires you to load 1 into a register first. <lang 68000devpac> MOVEQ #$19,D0 MOVEQ #1,D1 MOVEQ #0,D2
ABCD D1,D0 JSR PrintHex JSR NewLine
MOVEQ #$30,D0 SBCD D1,D0 JSR PrintHex JSR NewLine
MOVE.B #$99,D0 ABCD D1,D0 ;D0 has rolled over to 00 and set both the extend and carry flags. ADDX D2,D2 ;add the extend flag which was set by the above operation ;this can't use immediate operands either so we're using D2 which we set to zero at the start.
MOVE.L D0,D3 ;back up the output since PrintHex takes D0 as its argument. MOVE.L D2,D0 ;print the 01 JSR PrintHex MOVE.L D3,D0 ;then the 00 JSR PrintHex

- Output:
20 29 0100
ALGOL 68
Algol 68 does not have BCD as standard. This sample implements 2-digit unsigned packed decimal numbers, similar to the PL/M sample. The 2-digit numbers are then used to provide addition/subtraction of larger numbers. <lang algol68>BEGIN # implements packed BCD arithmetic #

J
Here, we represent hexadecimal numbers using J's constant notation, and to demonstrate bcd we generate results in that representation:
<lang J> bcd=: &.((10 #. 16 #.inv ". ::]) :. ('16b',16 hfd@#. 10 #.inv ]))
16b19 +bcd 1
16b20
16b30 -bcd 1
16b29
16b99 +bcd 1
16b100
(16b99 +bcd 1) -bcd 1
16b99</lang>
Note that we're actually using a hex representation as an intermediate result here. Technically, though, sticking with built in arithmetic and formatting as decimal, but gluing the '16b' prefix onto the formatted result would have been more efficient. And that says a lot about bcd representation. (The value of bcd is not efficiency, but how it handles edge cases. Consider the decimal IEEE 754 format as an example where this might be considered significant. There are other ways to achieve those edge cases -- bcd happens to be relevant when building the mechanisms into hardware.)
For reference, here are decimal and binary representations of the above numbers:
<lang J> (":,_16{.' '-.~'2b',":@#:) 16b19 25 2b11001
(":,_16{.' '-.~'2b',":@#:) 16b20

The FPU maths is all as normal (decimal), it is only the load and store that convert from/to BCD.
While I supply everything in decimal, you could easily return and pass around the likes of acc and res.

PL/M
... under CP/M (or an emulator)
The 8080 PL/M compiler supports packed BCD by wrapping the 8080/Z80 DAA instruction with the DEC built in function, demonstrated here. Unfortunately, I couldn't get the first use of DEC to yeild the correct result without first doing a shift operation. Not sure if this is a bug in the program, the compiler or the 8080 emulator or that I'm misunderstanding something...
This is basically

Wren
In Wren all numbers are represented by 64 bit floats and the language has no real concept of bytes, nibbles or even integers.
The following is therefore a simulation of BCD arithmetic using packed binary strings to represent decimal digits. It only works for non-negative integral numbers.
We can change to 'unpacked' notation simply by prepending '0000' to each 'digit' of the 'packed' notation.
In what follows, the hex prefix '0x' is simply a way of representing BCD literals and has nothing to do with hexadecimal as such. <lang ecmascript>import "./check" for Check import "./math" for Int import "./str" for Str import "./fmt" for Fmt

Z80 Assembly
The DAA function will convert an 8-bit hexadecimal value to BCD after an addition or subtraction is performed. The algorithm used is actually quite complex, but the Z80's dedicated hardware for it makes it all happen in 4 clock cycles, tied with the fastest instructions the CPU can perform.
<lang z80> PrintChar equ &BB5A ;Amstrad CPC kernel's print routine org &1000
ld a,&19 add 1 daa call ShowHex call NewLine
ld a,&30 sub 1 daa call ShowHex call NewLine
ld a,&99 add 1 daa
- this rolls over to 00 since DAA only works with the accumulator.
- But the carry is set by this operation, so we can work accordingly.
