PEEKQ Function

X = PEEKQ(address)

Reads a 64-bit quad-word from address and returns it as an integer.

Note

The full 8-byte span must be valid; otherwise Bad Address at <address> is raised.

---

How to read it

• Loads 8 bytes, little-endian.
• Unaligned 64-bit reads may tear if another agent is concurrently writing.

---

Examples

REM Read a 64-bit value
Q = PEEKQ(&100080)
PRINT Q

---

Notes

• Use for 64-bit fields or counters; don’t assume atomicity for unaligned addresses.
