; Types are not dynamic, they are inferenced.

	result: x + y; Everything after ; is not read and treated like a comment

	return result; Methods don't need types, they are also inferenced
}

	; This will generate two overrides of "this_is_a_method" 
	; one with int and one with string
	Global.this_is_a_method(5, 10);

; everything is an object.
some_value: 5

add_one: (x) { x + 1 }

; All objects are passed by reference
add_one(some_value)

; some_value is now 6

other_value: add_one(some_value.clone())

; some_value is still 6 since we passed a clone. other_value is 7
