-Here we have stated exactly which register to use. However, by
-replacing C<S0> with C<$S0> we can delegate the choice of which
-register to use to Parrot.  It is also possible to use an C<=>
-notation instead of writing the C<set> instruction.
+This sample shows the explicit use of the C<set> opcode. PIR
+provides some syntactic relief here with the C<=> operator.
