LOAD AN D STORE REGISTER
There are two instructions that enable the program-
mer to address registers so that he may either load
a value in the register(s) selected, or store the con-
tents of the register(s) in memory.
The four-byte memory locations used for either
storing or loading registers must be word-oriented.
LOAD MULTIPLE
This instruction places designated value(s) into one
or more consecutively numbered general registers.
The following instruction:

word-oriented four-byte addresses by ALPHA.
The instruction below loads General Registers 2, 3,

oriented 24 bytes addressed by ALPHA.

STORE MULTIPLE
This instruction places the contents of one or more
consecutively numbered general registers into mem-
ory. The locations that store the register(s) must
be word-oriented. A full word is used for the storage
of the contents of each register.
The Operand format is the same as for the LOAD
MULTIPLE instruction.
