    FCOM compares a real number to ST and leaves the result encoded in
    the status word as shown above. If no source operand is specified,
    ST(1) is compared to ST. Otherwise, source is compared to ST.

    FCOMP operates like FCOM, except that it also pops the stack.

    FCOMPP compares ST to ST(1), sets the condition codes as shown
    above, and pops the stack twice. It takes no operands.


    Note
    If ST contains a NaN or has an undefined format, or a stack fault
    occurs, the invalid-operand exception is raised and the condition
    bits are set to 'unordered'.
    The sign of zero is ignored, so that -0.0 = +0.0.


    The FCOM instructions perform the same operation as the FUCOM
    instructions. The only difference is how they handle QNaN operands.
    The FCOM instructions raise an invalid-arithmetic-operand exception
    (#IA) when either or both of the operands is a NaN value or is in an
    unsupported format. The FUCOM instructions perform the same
    operation as the FCOM instructions, except that they do not generate
    an invalid-arithmetic-operand exception for QNaNs.
