Abstract

An instruction generates a value for use in processing within a computing environment. The instruction obtains a sign control associated with the instruction, and shifts an input value of the instruction in a specified direction by a selected amount to provide a result. The result is placed in a first designated location in a register, and the sign, which is based on the sign control, is placed in a second designated location of the register. The result and the sign provide a signed value to be used in processing within the computing environment.
