operation code         
<programming> (Or "op code") The part or parts of a {machine language} instruction which determines what kind of action the computer should take, e.g. add, jump, load, store. In any particular instruction set certain fixed bit positions within the instruction word contain the op code, others give parameters such as the addresses or registers involved. For example, in a 32-bit instruction the most significant eight bits might be the op code giving 256 possible operations. For some instruction sets, certain values in the fixed bit positions may select a group of operations and the exact operation may depend on other bits within instruction word or subsequent words. When programming in assembly language, the op code is represented by a readable name called an {instruction mnemonic}. (1997-02-14)
Opcode         
In computing, an opcode (abbreviated from operation code, also known as instruction machine code, instruction code, instruction syllable, instruction parcel or opstring) is the portion of a machine language instruction that specifies the operation to be performed. Beside the opcode itself, most instructions also specify the data they will process, in the form of operands.

Opcode

In computing, an opcode (abbreviated from operation code, also known as instruction machine code, instruction code, instruction syllable, instruction parcel or opstring) is the portion of a machine language instruction that specifies the operation to be performed. Beside the opcode itself, most instructions also specify the data they will process, in the form of operands. In addition to opcodes used in the instruction set architectures of various CPUs, which are hardware devices, they can also be used in abstract computing machines as part of their byte code specifications.

Examples of use of operation code
1. Residents were asked to remain in their homes during the operation, code–named Defying Eagle.
2. The operation, code–named Medusa, met what commanders acknowledged was surprising resistance.
3. A police operation, code–named Carousel, has been tracking the suspects over the last eight months.
4. That operation, code–named Lightning, failed to have any impact on the bombings, shootings and killings that have become daily fare in Baghdad.
5. In an operation code–named "Shield," Russian police have been using legal technicalities to pull people off trains and airliners as they tried to reach St.
