<p>
The registers <code>R10</code> and <code>R11</code> are reserved.
The assembler uses them to hold temporary values when assembling some instructions.
</p>

<p>

Channels act as first-in-first-out queues.
For example, if one goroutine sends values on a channel
and a second goroutine receives them, the values are
received in the order sent.
