The program loop continues execution until the program address fetched equals the LA
register contents (last address of program loop). The contents of the LC are then tested
for one. If the LC is not one, it is decremented, and the top location in the stack RAM is
read (but not pulled) into the PC to return to the start of the loop. If the LC is one, the pro-
gram loop is terminated by the following sequence:
The LF bit (pulled from the SS when a loop is terminated) indicates if the terminated loop
was a nested loop. Figure 6-14 shows two DO loops, one nested inside the other. If the
stack is managed to prevent a stack overflow, DO loops can be stacked indefinitely.
The ENDDO instruction is not used for normal termination of a DO loop; it is only used to
terminate a DO loop before the LC has been decremented to one.
