[section Arguments]
Arguments are also functions? You bet!
Until now, we have been dealing with expressions returning a nullary function.
Arguments, on the other hand, evaluate to an N-ary function. An argument
represents the Nth argument. There are a few predefined arguments arg1,
arg2, arg3, arg4 and so on (and it's __bll__ counterparts: _1, _2, _3, _4 and so
on). Examples:
arg1 // one-or-more argument function that returns its first argument
arg2 // two-or-more argument function that returns its second argument
arg3 // three-or-more argument function that returns its third argument
`argN` returns the Nth argument. Examples:
int i = 3;
char const* s = "Hello World";
std::cout << arg1(i) << std::endl; // prints 3
std::cout << arg2(i, s) << std::endl; // prints "Hello World"
(See [@../../example/arguments.cpp arguments.cpp])
