For the hotel guests who are interested in joining conservation activities, the Niyama Private Islands has an adopt a coral program[13][14][15] in which coral gardens are cultivated with attached iron frames covered in sand. This creates an environment for the corals to grow faster.

gollark: It sounds like `call` could basically just be done as `push` with the assembler filling in the right location.

gollark: It seems like I could probably get away with just having the stack as a table of ints stored along with the main execution state (which is currently just memory) and having push/pop.
gollark: I'm not sure exactly what stacks do in assembly, I mostly just know about the... general data structure.
