an opcode (operation code) is the portion of a machine language instruction that specifies the operation to be performed. Their specification and format are laid out in the instruction set architecture of the processor in question (which may be a general CPU or a more specialized processing unit). Apart from the opcode itself, an instruction normally also has one or more specifiers foroperands (i.e. data) on which the operation should act, although some operations may have implicit operands, or none at all. There are instruction sets with nearly uniform fields for opcode and operand specifiers, as well as others (the x86architecture for instance) with a more complicated, varied length structure.by: HerLoyd
I believe that it is expanding due to the fact that it is harder to trace hackers over long distances and when they bounce their program over several servers across the globe.
· 1)Syntax errors like missing commas· 2)Invalid opcode· 3)Duplicate definition of symbol· 4)Undefined symbol· 5)Missing START· 6)Missing END· 7)Symbol defined
Symbols to represent instructions Each instruction (opcode) is given some mnemonic name Various addressing modes might select different opcodes for same mnemonic Symbols to represent labels and variables The addresses where variables are stored can be named Addresses in the code can be labelled
The United States hoped to limit arms, and also to stop the Japanese from expanding any further.
