# Current styles of generic procedures
# Generic
proc foo[T](a: int, b: T): T =
  result = b

  var i = 0
  while i < a:
    result = result+b

# Typedesc
proc foo(T:typedesc, a: int, b: T): T =
  result = b

  var i = 0
  while i < a:
    result = result+b


# The generic style procedure can be 'instanciated'
var genProc = foo[int]

# But the Typedesc can't
# However the typedesc supports more calling kinds (can't remember atm)
# So why not make the [] accept more than just types?
var newProc = foo[int, 5] # Only accepts one argument, a number
