Hi! As you know, this is mostly your patch, I've just added some comments, testcase and a small optimization; I believe the fix is right, if next[j] is constant in addition to val[j] (for both args or op[1-j] is constant), the loop can have 0(1), 1(2) or infinite iterations, and we can just brute force that one or 2 iterations to find out the outcome.
