Opcode Modes:

• Implied - No arguments are needed
• Accumulator - Operates directly on Accumulator (A)
• Immediate - Argument is literal value rather than an address
• Relative - Argument is a signed 8-bit integer
• Zero Page - Argument is an 8-bit memory address in memory address range $0000-$00FF
• Zero Page,X - Argument is an 8-bit memory address in range $0000-$00FF and the value of X is added to it
• Absolute - Argument is a full 16-bit memory address
• Absolute,X - Argument is a full 16-bit memory address and the value of X is added to it
• Absolute,Y - Argument is a full 16-bit memory address and the value of Y is added to it
• (Indirect) - Argument is a full 16-bit memory address. The value of at the memory address is the low byte of the real target of the instruction. The value of the byte after the memory address is the high byte of the real tartet of the instruction.
• (Indirect, X) - Argument is a full 16-bit memory address. X is added to that memory address and the value at the X modified memory address is the low byte of the real target of the instruction. The value at the byte after the X modified memory address is the high byte of the real tartet of the instruction.
• (Indirect), Y - Argument is a full 16-bit memory address. Y is added to that memory address and the value at the Y modified memory address is the low byte of the real target of the instruction. The value at the byte after the Y modified memory address is the high byte of the real tartet of the instruction.
