Logical Instructions

Explore logical instructions used in x64 assembly language, such as AND, OR, and bit shift operations. Understand the instruction format and how shifts alter bit strings, helping you analyze and debug programs at the assembly level.

Instruction format

We’ve seen that most assembly language instructions have a uniform format. For example:

Opcode operand
Opcode source_operand, destination_operand

Operands can be:

  • registers (reg)
  • memory labels (mem)
