  # Values represent the information as it is processed. Different subclasses for different types, 
  # each type with different operations.
  # The oprerations on values is what makes a machine do things. Operations are captured as 
  # subclasses of Instruction and saved to Blocks
  
  # Values are immutable! (that's why they are called values)
  # Operations on values _always_ produce new values (conceptionally)
  
  # Values are a way to reason about (create/validate) instructions. 
  # In fact a linked lists of values is created by invoking instructions
  # the linked list goes from value to instruction to value, backwards
  
  # Word Values are what fits in a register. Derived classes
  # Float, Reference , Integer(s) must fit the same registers
  
  # just a base class for data. not sure how this will be usefull (may just have read too much llvm)
