[edit] 32-bit Manipulations
To manipulate 32-bit numbers, we need to break the values into 16-bit component parts, and manipulate the parts individually.
To load a 32-bit number, we need to use lui to load the high 16 bits with the specified number. Then we need to use ori to shift the high 16 bits into the low 16 bits. Finally, we need to use lui again to load the upper 16 bits. The result will be the complete 32 bit number.
