Hello,
Is there any pattern to the z80 opcodes?

Absolutely. They're designed to trigger certain series of logic gates deep within the z80's core that designate how the subsequent bytes are treated. To go into how exactly they're laid out, though, is probably somewhat outside the scope of your project, whatever it happens to be. Can you specify what your purpose is? Is there any pattern to the z80 opcodes?
Can't wait to do beta testing

Aight, then give me a chance to get home and pop open tasm80.tab, and we'll see what we can figure out. 
One of the simplest way to decode the opcodes is to use the rules documented here. For speed you may wish to use a large switch block or table of function pointers.

Ah, that's exactly the kind of analysis I was going to do myself. Nice find, Benryves. Register to Join the Conversation
