+This is not quite an exhaustive list of MIPS-1 instructions
+(as was originally sort of implied). Some were deliberately left out
+for teaching purposes, while others are not as important and tend
+to penalise people for making the same mistakes in multiple places.

There are many instructions, but there is a lot of commonality
between some instructions. Think about the underlying
digital data-path in a real processor, and use that to identify
