A branch prediction circuit includes: a memory for storing information representing a branch instruction and a branch prediction; a control circuit for controlling rewriting information in the memory in accordance with a result of determining whether or not a predicted branch has been taken, and determining an attribute of the predicted branch from a branch condition set by the branch instruction and the predicted branch that has been taken, if the predicted branch has been taken; and a rewriting circuit rewriting the information in the memory under the control of the control circuit. |
