Thanks for the thoughtful replies. Answers to questions:
Many people asked for the context. This is for college students using what they already know about the order of arithmetic operations to start analyzing the structure of code. In the activity, they visual code structures using these kind of diagrams. The important thing here is thus not just subtraction; it’s this way of visualizing the relationships — and there already is a sight-centeric word, “visualize!” But I suspect a blind reader could also use these spatial relationships as a learning tool…if there were a good way of conveying the spatial relationships.
I found this today when messing around with lifting-bits/sleigh build options and got a build error. Very interesting! Dynamic p-code shenanigans!
“TLDR: there is a (undocumented and disabled by default) feature in the Ghidra decompiler that lets you create your own decompiler passes, using a custom DSL. I leverage it to write a deobfuscation rule for a simple obfuscation technique.”
Thanks you @…
