Study Notes

After the instruction INC CL is executed, the value of CL is incremented by 1.
The Sign Flag (SF) is affected by the most significant bit of the result, being set to 1 if the result is negative and 0 if it's positive.
The Carry Flag (CF) is set to 1 if there is a carry from the most significant bit, otherwise, it's 0.
The Zero Flag (ZF) is set to 1 if the result is zero, and 0 if it's not.

The flag settings after the AND BL, 0FH instruction depend on the result of the AND operation.

The Carry Flag (CF) indicates whether an operation has generated a carry from the most significant bit.
The Parity Flag (PF) is set to 1 if the result has even parity, and 0 if it has odd parity.
The Auxiliary Carry Flag (AF) indicates whether an operation has generated a carry from the lower nibble (bits 3-0) to the upper nibble (bits 7-4).
The Sign Flag (SF) is set to 1 if the result is negative, and 0 if it's positive.
The Overflow Flag (OF) indicates whether an operation has generated an overflow, which occurs when the result is greater than the maximum value that can be represented.
