[Question][Hw7] Scope of hw7

[jirheee]

According to Llvm documentation about ICmp instruction, pointers can also be an operand. Should we allow pointer comparisons?

The remaining two arguments must be integer or pointer or integer vector typed. They must also be identical types.

Also, should we take care of ptrtoint cast of llvm?

For the first question, pointer is a type you should support, and icmp is an instruction you should support. So yes, you should allow pointer comparisons.
For the second questions, any of the llvm instructions not mentioned in https://github.com/prosyslab-classroom/smallvm-typechecker-master#3-format-of-input-programs is considered nop.

Hope this clarifies your question.
