Branch and Hang
<humour> (BRH) Originally a mythical instruction for the IBM 1130 at
Indiana University.
Later some real examples were discovered. The Texas Instruments TI-980 allowed
all addressing modes with all instructions, including Store Immediate Extended
(stores the value into the extension word of the instruction) and Branch and
Link Immediate (makes a subroutine call to the same instruction -- Branch and
Hang).
Compare HCF.
