Abstract
In a microprogrammed data processing system the throughput of the system is increased during the processing of decimal numeric instructions by apparatus which strips zone bits, sign, exponent and non-operand characters from the operand when the operand is received from memory and appends the zone bits, sign, exponent and non-operand characters to the resultant operand when stored into memory. The control signals for stripping and appending information is enabled by shifter logical elements.
