This week, instead of an article about one instruction, I give you a visual depiction of the eleven load operations for an IBM z16. There are no words, so it’s something like a puzzle. You have to parse the diagrams to glean the information. Much is left out of course. No talk of addressing techniques, just the results of executing each instruction is depicted. But you may learn a new instruction or reinforce what you already know. Enjoy—it helped me. View the diagrams here. Let me know if you would like a video about this.
