# Helper functions to pad memory.

# Meory is always in lines, chunks of 8 words / 32 bytes
module Padding
# objects only come in lengths of multiple of 8 words / 32 bytes
# and there is a "hidden" 1 word that is used for debug/check memory corruption

a = 32 * (1 + (len + 3)/32 )
#puts "#{a} for #{len}"
