#### Register manipulations
* `MOVE` copies a value from one register to another
```hs
computationcost(MOVE(destREG, sourceREG)) =
wordCopyCost * registerSize(sourceREG)
memoryDelta(MOVE(destREG, sourceREG)) =
registerSize(sourceREG) - registerSize(destREG)
```
* `LOADPOS` loads an immediate (positive) value into a register
```hs
computationcost(LOADPOS(destREG, SOURCE)) =
wordCopyCost * registerSize(SOURCE)
memoryDelta(LOADPOS(destREG, SOURCE)) =
registerSize(SOURCE) - registerSize(destREG)
```
* `LOADNEG` loads an immediate (positive) value into a register, negating it
first.

This assumes either a sign + number representation or a two's complement
with the source already in that form.

```hs
computationcost(LOADPOS(destREG, SOURCE)) =
wordCopyCost * registerSize(SOURCE) + wordCost
memoryDelta(LOADPOS(destREG, SOURCE)) =
registerSize(SOURCE) - registerSize(destREG)
```

#### Account operations

* `BALANCE`
