Not true. If you want to quibble about semantics, it's a good idea to learn what the semantics are. "Branch" essentially means "update the PSW address with something else".
CICS (for whatever reason) used to (and still does for all I know) use BALR 14,14 to invoke subroutines. That would obviously be a NOOP if it was a "save & branch". sas On Thu, Feb 10, 2022 at 1:22 PM Schmitt, Michael <michael.schm...@dxc.com> wrote: > Then there's the point that they really are Save and (then) Branch, not > Branch and (then) Save... > >
