New description:
# Within a method ... This doesn't work.
{{{
$I0 = 1
$P0 = getattribute self, 'someIntField'
$I1 = iseq $I0, $P0
}}}
# Error message:
# error:imcc:The opcode 'iseq_i_i_p' (iseq<3>) was not found. Check the
type and number of the arguments
There is already support for math operands with mixed types, so allowing
iseq to have the same behavior is good for consistency:
{{{
# Test by bacek
~/src/parrot (ops_pct_local)$ cat t.pir
.sub "main"
$N0 = 40.0
$I0 = 2
$N1 = $N0 + $I0
say $N1
.end
~/src/parrot (ops_pct_local)$ ./parrot t.pir
42
}}}
