xcall FP_MUL(result, operand1, operand2)

result

Returned with the result of multiplying operand1 by operand2. (a8)

operand1

The multiplicand. (a8)

operand2

The multiplier. (a8)

The FP_MUL subroutine multiplies two floating-point numbers.

The following equation is performed:

result = operand1 * operand2

Result, operand1, and operand2 are native floating-point numbers represented as a8 variables.
