each of the ops, 1-6, is a floating point number taking up 10 bytes (actually,
11, but the last one isn't really used).  you can use them for scratch space
in an asm program, but there are also lots of rom calls for using them for
math, as well as things like _findsym which require variable names in op1. i
recommend you check ti86ops.inc for more info about the specific calls
