Programming Language Compilation
Discuss two possible strategies that you might use to translate the abstract syntax
tree corresponding to an integer expression composed of simple variables, integer

You should pay particular attention to how you would control the allocation of
registers and anonymous store locations, and you should outline what optimisations
are convenient to perform. [20 marks]
