Can we have some clarification on Problem 17 in as far as any constraints on the operand field.

For example, compressing:

L1    CLI    F1,64

Is much easier than compressing:

L1    CLI    F1,C’ ‘

If quoted operands are to be allowed, the recognition and compression algorithms become much more difficult.

Also, can we assume that neither comments or sequence numbers (73-80) are to be permitted?
