New submission from Stephen Tu:
Here's a simple patch to optimize away constant boolean
conjunctions/disjunctions. for example:
def foo():
if 1 and 0:
print("hi")
now disassembles into:
7 0 LOAD_CONST 0 (None)
3 RETURN_VALUE
while I realize more general techniques for achieving this have been proposed
(ie http://bugs.python.org/issue1346238), this is a very simple, self-contained
patch.
