 Of special note within this section are the ranges $0000-$00FF, and $0100-$01FF, called the Zero Page and the Stack respectively. Addresses in the Zero Page can be accessed more quickly by special opcodes, and addresses in the stack are used by certain operations such as calling and returning from subroutines. Of special note within this section are the ranges $0000-$00FF, and $0100-$01FF, called the Zero Page and the Stack respectively.
