Chapter 2, Problem 27CRP
Program Plan Intro
The program counter indicates the address of the first instruction at the same time. The instructions are fetched and program counter increase the stored value of the instruction being executed at the same time. The instructions are provided in the form of vole. The vole refers to family of stout, short-tailed rodent species found across the world.
