// Package cartridge fully implements loading of mapping of cartridge memory.
// Cartridge memory is memory that is peripheral to the VCS and can grow quite
// complex.
//
// There are many different types of mapping scheme supported by the package.
//
// Some cartridge types contain additional RAM but the main difference is how
// they map additional ROM into the relatively small address space available
// for cartridges in the VCS. This is called bank-switching. All of these
// differences are handled transparently by the package.
//
// Currently supported cartridge types are listed in the cartridgeloader
// package.
