In mathematics, a unary operation is an operation with only one operand, i.e. a single input.

This only makes sense if the result is the same irrespective of the choice of form of the operand.

Accumulator mode used the accumulator as an effective address, and did not need any operand data.

Sign of the operand depends upon its most significant bit.
