The CPU word can be architected to give a lot of information to help with computation.

STUB For a 32 bit machine:

  • 2 bits? say what the next 6 mean:
  • next 6 bits are flags to give error conditions or data on the data (metadata): whether it's a pointer, a name, etc.
  • 24 bits of data, giving 1:16M precision: more than 99.9% of the people need.
64bits? now you can do single clock math operations
