No, the ZEC12 is a quantum machine. You can't tell the status of your program 
until you quit the Transaction State.

Funny.

Thanks to Dave Bond for the PDF link, still downloading....

Objet : Re: The Transaction state (was Model 2827 New Instructions)

I also note with amusement that the words "random" and "randomly"
appear in the Principles of Operation description of a machine
operation for the first time, to my recollection. The word random has
been present for a while in the phrase "pseudo-random" in the
description of a couple of crypto operations, and there are a few
other passing uses in comments, but there is now a machine behaviour
that can be set to, in the extreme, "abort random transactions at a
random instruction".

Of course "random" is not at all to be confused with "unpredictable",
which has frequent, long, and honourable use in this book...
