command dec operand
Decreases the operand by one.
The CF flag is not affected. The OF, SF, ZF, AF,
and PF flags are set according to the result.
operand = operand - 1
Subtracts 1 from the operand, while preserving the state of the CF flag. The operand can be a register or a memory location. This instruction allows a loop counter to be updated without disturbing the CF flag. (To perform a decrement operation that updates the CF flag, use a SUB instruction with an immediate operand of 1.)
