An instruction in machine language. Its anatomy is a verb followed by one or more nouns:
OP CODE OPERANDS (one or more)
(verb) (nouns)
The op code is the operation to be performed (add, copy, etc.), while the operands are the data to be acted upon (add a to b). There are always machine instructions to INPUT and OUTPUT, to process data by CALCULATING, COMPARING and COPYING it, and to go to some other part of the program with a GOTO instruction.
