Can Truffle constant fold yet?
> 14
Yes! Truffle can constant fold this to 14
> 14 + 2
Yes! Truffle can constant fold this to 16
> eval([1, 2, 3].inspect).sort[1] * 2
Yes! Truffle can constant fold this to 4
> eval(rand < 0.5 ? '14 - 2' : '10 + 2')
Yes! Truffle can constant fold this to 12
> eval('rand')
No :( Truffle can't constant fold that
It's because strings are mutable. A dynamic value 14 is the same as a constant value 14, but
'foo' + 'bar'generates a new value each time, so it's not clear how to make that constant.
