{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DiscussionForumPosting","headline":"Misleading Output Annotation in select_arg","articleBody":"The annotation for the return value _arg_ in the _select_arg_ function is misleading. While _arg_ can theoretically represent any of the following types: **Immediate(int), Reg(reg), or Deref(reg, int)**, the implementation of this function does not handle _Deref(reg, int)_. This type is managed in the _assign_homes_ pass.\n\nThis discrepancy caused confusion while I was developing the function, leading to misunderstandings about the possible return values and their handling within the code.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/Ajorian","@type":"Person","name":"Ajorian"},"datePublished":"2025-07-18T12:48:54.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/37/python-student-support-code/issues/37"}| route-pattern | /_view_fragments/issues/show/:user_id/:repository/:id/issue_layout(.:format) |
