Hi,
I'm currently studying the lambda code generation phase of the standard
OCaml compiler.
You can take a look at this for an example :

I'm wondering what is 'makeblock' for ?
And why is there '/<a number>' after every variable/function name ?
Isn't the name sufficient for identifying variables ?
Thanks !
If I recall correctly, makeblock is for block allocation and is used to
make empty blocks for everything that does not fit in just one integer.
The /<a number> is used to uniquely identify identifiers. In this example :
let x = 1 in let x = 2 in x
The /<a number> allows you to know which "let" variable is represented
by the "x" at the end.
