//! Tools used by the compiler to optimize a chunk's bytecode.
use crate::{instruction::SetLocal, Chunk, Operation};
/// Optimizes a short control flow pattern.
///
/// Comparison and test instructions (which are always followed by a JUMP) can be optimized when
/// the next instructions are two constant or boolean loaders. The first loader is set to skip
/// an instruction if it is run while the second loader is modified to use the first's register.
/// This makes the following two code snippets compile to the same bytecode:
///
/// ```dust
/// 4 == 4
/// ```
///
/// ```dust
/// if 4 == 4 { true } else { false }
/// ```
///
/// The instructions must be in the following order:
/// - `Operation::Equal` | `Operation::Less` | `Operation::LessEqual` | `Operation::Test`
/// - `Operation::Jump`
/// - `Operation::LoadBoolean` | `Operation::LoadConstant`
/// - `Operation::LoadBoolean` | `Operation::LoadConstant`
