# Memory Map
To not have to allocate a ton of things at run time the Standard Library uses a static memory map for some purposes
## Overview
| Start | Use |
| ---- | ---- |
| `0x0` | Reset Vector |
| `0x16` | Zero Page |
| `0x100` | User Code |
| `?` | Library Code |
| `0x1_0000` | LUTs |
| `?` | heap |
| `0xXXF0_0000` | Stack |
| `0xXXFF_0000` | quick access |
## Zero Page
Some values are needed not often enough to get their own special register, but often enough that it makes sense to keep them at a quickly accessible location.
This is what the zero page is for. its position in memory allows us to load them into a register with a single instruction.

This is a standard library for symphony.
It is both intended as a practical toolkit to develop more complex software as well as a teaching resource.
If you just want to use the standard library [[src/stdlib.asm]] is your main header, include it after your code.
If you just want to use the standard library [[stdlib.asm]] is your main header, include it after your code.
You also need to include [[globals.asm]] as the first line in your assembly file.
If you are using it as a learning resource have a look at the [teaching folder](teaching).
