CMP (Compare) is a 65x instruction that compares the value of the accumulator to something. Internally, this is done via a subtraction, but the difference is not stored anywhere. CMP only does unsigned comparisons. In immediate addressing only, CMP is a total of 3 bytes long when the accumulator is 16 bits wide. Unlike SBC, the carry flag does not affect CMP.
