Advantages of Constant Folding
There are many benefits of Constant Folding. They are as follows:
- Constant Folding is used to decrease the execution time.
- It optimizes the code.
- This technique also reduces Lines of Code.
- Constant Folding also helps in efficient memory management.
Constant Folding
As we all know humans understand only programming languages like C, C++, Python, Java, etc. whereas a computer can only understand bytecodes or machine languages. So compiler acts as a converter. Its aim is to convert the high-level language to machine-level language. However, during conversion, some optimization processes are followed to make the code more efficient thereby increasing the execution speed as well. One such optimization technique is Constant Folding.
