Remember that in absolute addressing the two bytes following the op-code specify the address of the data to be manipulated . In absolute indexed addressing, the contents of either the X or Y register are added to an abso lute address to determine the actual memory location used. One of the primary uses for this addressing mode is to access the elements of a table or array. Zero Page Indexed Addressing: This form of indexed addressing is very similar to abso lute indexed addressing. The contents of either the X or Y register are added to the operand to obtain the actual memory location used for the data.
