Use VL to load 16 one-byte search arguments into (for example) V0 Use VLL to load 16 bytes (or how ever many remain if <16) of the string into (for example) V1 Use VFAEB to find the first matching byte e.g., VFAEB V1,V1,V0,1 If CC=not found, adjust string pointer up by 16 and remaining length down by 16 and loop back to the VLL (or exit if none left) Otherwise, use VLGVG to get the matching ELE index from V1 into (for example) R15 Point to matching byte in the string by adding index value to the current string pointer e.g., LA R1,0(R15,1R1) -- This message and any attachments are intended only for the use of the addressee and may contain information that is privileged and confidential.
