        > Focus on debugging your application rather than debugging your programming language knowledge.

        > A structure has two sizes: its bit-size, and its byte-size.

        > A regular value T coerces to E!T, and an error type E coerces to E!T

        > You can iterate on the contents of c with an inline for at comptime to transform functions the way you want.
