I had a question about pure functions. I'm seeing some newer languages
have a JIT built-in so they can run any function at compile time. To
get results at compile time you probably need to use a constant for
the parameters but in theory it could read/write to global variables
so it's not really "pure" but still makes it possible to run functions
at compile time.
FPC has JIT backends like JVM.
But that is just the backend, FPC still works only at compile time, so
no JIT at runtime possible. Is it?
