| 16 | <p> |
| 17 | Unconditionally jump to the indicated instruction. |

| 20 | Note: The branch offset may not be 0. (A spin loop may be legally constructed |

| 55 | |
| 56 | <ul> |
| 57 | <li> |
| 58 | The (otherwise invisible) program counter PC is set to the address of the |
| 59 | instruction plus the given offset, that is, PC' = PC(goto) + A. |
| 60 | </li> |
| 61 | <li> |
| 62 | Executions resumes at PC'. |
