Immediate Value
Revision as of 11:29, 7 January 2014 by Chris Tyler (talk | contribs)
An immediate value in machine code is a constant or literal value argument. For example, the 6502 instruction:
LDA #$80
Will load the literal value 0x80 (128) into the accumulator (A register). This contrasts with loading a value from a memory location or another register.
