"""A ladder graph creation program.

This is a python program that creates c source code that will generate
CFGs that are ladder graphs.  Ladder graphs are generally the worst case
for a lot of dominance related algorithms (Dominance frontiers, etc),
and often generate N^2 or worse behavior.

One good use of this program is to test whether your linear time algorithm is
really behaving linearly.
