<h4 class="subsection">9.56.2 Syntax</h4>
<p>The assembler syntax closely follows the 'Z80 family CPU User Manual' by
Zilog.
In expressions a single &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">=</span></samp>&rsquo; may be used as &ldquo;is equal to&rdquo;
comparison operator.
<p>Suffices can be used to indicate the radix of integer constants;
&lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">H</span></samp>&rsquo; or &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">h</span></samp>&rsquo; for hexadecimal, &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">D</span></samp>&rsquo; or &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">d</span></samp>&rsquo; for decimal,
&lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">Q</span></samp>&rsquo;, &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">O</span></samp>&rsquo;, &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">q</span></samp>&rsquo; or &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">o</span></samp>&rsquo; for octal, and &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">B</span></samp>&rsquo; for
binary.
<p>The suffix &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">b</span></samp>&rsquo; denotes a backreference to local label.
