Which of the following are not data manipulation instructions? A. Call B. Loud C. And D. Increment E. Shift Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
A & B only
Morris Mano divides computer instructions into three groups: data transfer instructions (move data without changing it), data manipulation instructions (arithmetic, logical and bit-manipulation, and shift instructions) and program control instructions (change the flow of execution).
A. Call — transfers control to a subroutine: a program control instruction, not data manipulation.
B. Loud (Load) — copies a word from memory into a register: a data transfer instruction, not data manipulation.
C. And — a logical (bit-manipulation) instruction: data manipulation.
D. Increment — an arithmetic instruction: data manipulation.
E. Shift — a shift instruction: data manipulation.
So only Call and Load are not data manipulation instructions; every other choice includes at least one of And, Increment or Shift.
A & B only option is correct.
