## Flags ## Flags
Some instructions will change certain flags based on their result. These are in a special non read-write register. Some instructions will change certain flags based on their result. These are in a special non read-write register. These flags are used for the family of jump instructions. You can also use the [`PUSHF`](#pushf) and [`POPF`](#popf) instructions to query and manipulate the flags
The only way to set these flags is by using instructions and the only way to read these flags is with the jump behavior.
