Introduction

All these routines use the restoring division algorithm, adapted to the z80 architecture to maximize speed. They can easily be unrolled to gain some speed.

8/8 division

The following routine divides d by e and places the quotient in d and the remainder in a

   rla
   cp	e
   jr	c, $+4

32/16 division, Speed Optimized

At the cost of 30 bytes (exactly double the size), we can save 600cc on average, a 19.5% speed up. However, the inputs are slightly different here!

div32_16:
;DEIX/BC -> HLIX remainder DE
;170+4*div32_16_sub8
;min: 2182cc
;max: 2790cc
;avg: 2462cc
;60 bytes

; Negate BC to allow add instead of sbc
  xor a      ; 4
; Need to set HL to 0 anyways, so save 2cc and a byte

  ld l,a     ; 4

  ld c,a     ; 4

Rounded 16/8 division

The following routine divides hl by c and places the rounded quotient in hl and twice the prerounded remainder in a.

RoundHL_Div_C:
   xor	a
   ld	b, 16

_loop:
   add	hl, hl
   rla
   jr	c, $+5
   cp	c
   jr	c, $+4
   sub	c
   inc	l   
   djnz	_loop
;This part is the rounding
   add a,a
   cp	c
   ret	c
