1 definition found From The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) [jargon]: no-op /noh'op/, n.,v. alt.: NOP /nop/ [no operation] 1. A machine instruction that does nothing (sometimes used in assembler-level programming as filler for data or patch areas, or to overwrite code to be removed in binaries). 2. A person who contributes nothing to a project, or has nothing going on upstairs, or both. As in ?He's a no-op.? 3. Any operation or sequence of operations with no effect, such as circling the block without finding a parking space, or putting money into a vending machine and having it fall immediately into the coin-return box, or asking someone for help and being told to go away. ?Oh, well, that was a no-op.? Hot-and-sour soup (see great-wall) that is insufficiently either is no-op soup; so is wonton soup if everybody else is having hot-and-sour.
