True and False 1. The instruction register stores machine code for the instruction being executed. 2. Before a digital computer may execute an instruction, the instruction code must be fetched from memory. 3. A pointer is a binary code for data in the arithmetic logic unit. 4. Von Neumann computer architecture stores data and instruction codes in the same memory. 5. Complex instruction set computers have instructions with greater speed than those in reduced instruction set computers.
