• Visual 6502 can be used to figure out obscure instruction behavior. There's also a 2A03 version available (please avoid shift-reloading it as it is hosted on a limited uplink; normal reloading should work fine and should catch any updates to the data files). There is also a tutorial on reading the circuit diagrams available, aimed at beginners.
