In that situation, yes it is. Max is a very simple function though, and it gets more complicated if it appears in another pure function where the parameters are variables, but whose values are deterministic. In the end, Max is a function that can be pure and inline. For optimization, I figured t

[fpc-devel] Progress of pure function research

2018-07-15 Thread J. Gareth Moreton
Hi everyone, So I thought I'd do a little progress update on the pure function research. So far I'm mostly researching how the node builder works, specifically how inline functions are handled, since that's a situation where a 'call' node is effectively replaced, and I intend to builda similar s
