nx means the replication of x, n times (that is, x concatenated to itself n 1 times). n0 and n1 are special
cases:
n0 means a field of n bits with each bit equal to 0. Thus 50 is equivalent to 0b00000.
n1 means a field of n bits with each bit equal to 1. Thus 51 is equivalent to 0b11111.
/, //, ///, ... denotes a reserved field in an instruction or in a register.
? denotes an allocated bit in a register.
A shaded field denotes a field that is reserved or allocated in an instruction or in a register.
