Trimming the Fat

A few ways to shed the bytes:

var a:Number = 1/2 // 566 bytes
vs
var a:Number = 1*0.5 // 570 bytes


// 585 bytes
var b:Number = 1*0.5*2;
var c:Number = 1*0.5*3;
var d:Number = 1*0.5*4;
vs
// 589 bytes
var a:Number = 1*0.5;
var b:Number = a*2;
var c:Number = a*3;
var d:Number = a*4;



for(var i:int=0; i<10; i++) // 578 bytes
vs
for(var i:uint=0; i<10; i++) // 582 bytes
