Research direction

Start by reading the beniget project linked in the issue and comparing its assignment and forward-substitution behavior with the provided Python example. Done means assignments in functions like foo are transformed into an equivalent conditional expression such as value < 3 ? 3 : 4; no repository files or tests are named.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

We should use beniget for assignments and forward substitution. By using beniget we could allow this kind of functions:

def foo(value):
    if value < 3:
        b = 3
    else:
        b = 4
    return b

This should turn into an equivalent of value < 3 ? 3 : 4
