Abstract

A mathematical operation processing apparatus is disclosed by which the supply of an operand which is performed based on condition codes by a plurality of mathematical operations can be performed at a high speed. The mathematical operation processing apparatus includes a plurality of computing elements configured to perform different mathematical operations different from one another and produce mathematical operation results of the mathematical operations and condition codes. A condition code set register retains the condition codes produced simultaneously by the computing elements as a condition code set. A condition code conversion section performs a predetermined conversion for the condition code set and outputs a result of the conversion as a conversion condition code set. An operand supplying section supplies an operand for the mathematical operations in the computing elements based on the conversion condition code set.
