Hello, I know BCD is like more intuitive datatype if you dont know binary. But I dont know why to use this encoding, its like dont makes a lot os sense since its waste representacion in 4bits (when representacion is bigger than 9).
Also I think x86 anly supports adds and subs directly (you can convert them via FPU).
Its possible that this comes from old machines, or other architectures?
Hope this doesnt sound too newbie :P
Thanks!
