RTS is an
opcode for the
6502 processor. The opcode stands for "
Return From
Subroutine", which makes it the complementary
instruction to
JSR.
In short, it
pops the
instruction pointer which the most recently executed
JSR instruction stored on the
stack, and causes execution to continue from that location.
The machine code representation of this opcode is 0x60.
