Example:
RET
The statement "RET" pops the contents of stack pointer location 00FCH (10H) into the high byte
of program counter. The stack pointer then pops the value in location 00FEH (1AH) to the PC's
low byte and the instruction at location 101AH is executed. The stack pointer now points to
memory location 00FEH.
