gollark: Another useful Macron feature is that traits can implicitly be used as functions.
gollark: They are "cool", as instead of just returning a function can `yield` to pass some values up to its parent, then get `resume`d.
gollark: Was I unclear? Consider Lua's coroutines.
gollark: Oh, and as all functions are implicitly cooperatively multithreaded coroutines, it is possible for a function to suspend execution and then have the parent edit the locals in it.
gollark: I agree. That's why Macron actually lets you edit the closure-bound variables of functions, and *preemptively* set their locals before they even run.
