 iteration it will begin again at zero, the CR Field `EQ` will be set.

+*Programmer's note (1): VL in some situations, particularly larger Matrices,
 may exceed 64,
 meaning that `sv.svshape` returning a considerable number of values. Under
 such circumstances `sv.svshape/ew=8` is recommended.*

+*Programmer's note (2): having conveniently obtained a pre-computed
+Schedule with `sv.svstep`,
+it may then be used as the input to Indexed REMAP Mode
+to achieve the exact same Schedule. It is evident however that
+before use some of the Indices may be arbitrarily altered as desired.
+`sv.svstep helps the programmer having to manually recreate certain
+types of common Loop patterns.*
