+# Memory Operations
+when accessing memory trough an address a consecutive pair of registers is used,
+each consecutive pair of registers is given a name, for brevity a pair is 
+always referred to as `A`. The possible pairs are:
+
+- A = R1:R0
+- B = R3:R2
+- C = R5:R4
+- D = R7:R6
+- E = R9:R8
+- F = R11:R10
+- G = R13:R12
+- H = R15:R14
+- I = R17:R16
+- J = R19:R18
+- K = R21:R20
+- L = R23:R22
+- M = R25:R24
+- N = R27:R26
+- O = R29:R28
+- P = R31:R30
