'''SWEET16''' is an interpreted byte-code language invented by Steve Wozniak and implemented as part of the [[Integer BASIC]] ROM in the Apple II computer. It was created because Wozniak needed to manipulate 16-bit pointer data in his implementation of [[BASIC]], and the Apple II was an 8-bit computer.

SWEET16 code is executed as if it were running on a (non-existent) 16-bit [[Central processing unit|processor]] with sixteen, internal 16-bit little-endian registers, R0 through R15. Some registers have well-defined functions:

* R0 is the accumulator.
* R14 is the status register.
* R13 stores the result of all comparison operations for branch testing.
* R15 is the program counter.

The 16 virtual registers, 32 bytes in total, are located in the [[zero page]] of the Apple II's real, physical memory map (at $00-$1F). The actual SWEET16 interpreter is located from $F689 to $F7FC.

According to Wozniak, the SWEET16 implementation is a model of frugal coding, taking up only about 300 bytes in memory. SWEET16 runs about 10 times slower than the equivalent native [[MOS Technology 6502|6502]]
