14<h2>Purpose</h2>
15
16<p>
17Branch to the given destination if the given register's value compares with 0
18as specified.
19</p>
20<p>
21  Note: The branch offset may not be 0. (A spin loop may be legally constructed
22  either by branching around a backward goto or by including a nop as a target
23  before the branch.)

53<h2>Constraints</h2>
54
55<ul>
56  <li>
57    A must be a valid register index for the current stackframe.
58  </li>
59  <li>
60    Register vA must not contain a reference value.
61  </li>
62  <li>
63    Register vA must not be part of a register pair.
64  </li>
65  <li>
66    Register vA must not contain a floating point value (???).
67  </li>
68  <li>
69    B must not be 0.
70  </li>
71</ul>
72
73<h2>Behavior</h2>
74
75<ul>
76  <li>
77    The value of register vA is compared to zero according to the &lt;test&gt;
78    condition. Two results are possible:
79    <ul>
80      <li>
81        The condition holds. The value of B is used as a signed offset to the
82        address of the if-&lt;test&gt;z instruction. Execution continues at the
83        resulting address.
84      </li>
85      <li>
86        The condition does not hold. Execution continues at the instruction
87        following the if-&lt;test&gt;z instruction.
88      </li>
89    </ul>
90  </li>
91</ul>
