For example, the classic techniques for operator strength reduction insert new computations into the code and render the older, more expensive computations dead. [2] Subsequent dead-code elimination removes those calculations and completes the effect (without complicating the strength-reduction algorithm).
A B-tree insertion example with each iteration. The nodes of this B-tree have at most 3 children (Knuth order 3). All insertions start at a leaf node. To insert a new element, search the tree to find the leaf node where the new element should be added. Insert the new element into that node with the following steps:

The term dead code has multiple definitions. Some use the term to refer to code (i.e. instructions in memory) which can never be executed at run-time. [1] [2] [3] In some areas of computer programming, dead code is a section in the source code of a program which is executed but whose result is never used in any other computation.
Φ functions are not implemented as machine operations on most machines. A compiler can implement a Φ function by inserting "move" operations at the end of every predecessor block. In the example above, the compiler might insert a move from y 1 to y 3 at the end of the middle-left block and a move from y 2 to y 3 at the
In compiler theory, common subexpression elimination (CSE) is a compiler optimization that searches for instances of identical expressions (i.e., they all evaluate to the same value), and analyzes whether it is worthwhile replacing them with a single variable holding the computed value.
The following example demonstrates dynamic loop unrolling for a simple program written in C. Unlike the assembler example above, pointer/index arithmetic is still generated by the compiler in this example because a variable (i) is still used to address the array element.
while b ≠ 0: if a > b: a:= a-b else: b:= b-a return a An abstract syntax tree ( AST ) is a data structure used in computer science to represent the structure of a program or code snippet. It is a tree representation of the abstract syntactic structure of text (often source code ) written in a formal language .
