<h1>move</h1>
<h2>Purpose</h2>
<p>
Move the contents of one register-pair to another.
</p>
<p>
Note: It is legal to move from vN to either vN-1 or vN+1, so implementations
must arrange for both halves of a register pair to be read before anything is
written.

<h2>Constraints</h2>
<ul>
<li>
Both A+1 and B+1 must be valid register indices in the current stackframe
(which includes A and B being valid).
</li>
<li>
Register vB must be the lower half of a register pair (which excludes the
case of it containing a reference).
</li>
<li>
Both register vB and v(B+1) must be defined.
</li>
</ul>
<h2>Behavior</h2>
<ul>
<li>
The value of register vB is moved to register vA, that is, vA' = vB.
</li>
<li>
The value of register v(B+1) is moved to register v(A+1), that is, v(A+1)'
= v(B+1).
</li>
<li>
If register v(A-1) is the lower half of a register pair, then v(A-1)'
becomes undefined.
</li>
<li>
If register v(A+2) is the upper half of a register pair, then v(A+2)'
becomes undefined.
</li>
<li>
If A = B-1, then v(B+1)' becomes undefined.
</li>
<li>
If A = B+1, then v(B)' becomes undefined.
</li>
</ul>
<h2>Exceptions</h2>
<p>
None.
