;;; {Pure Functions}
;;; 
;;; A pure function (of some sort) is characterized by two equality
;;; relations: one on argument lists and one on return values.
;;; A pure function is one that when applied to equal arguments lists
;;; yields equal results.
;;;
;;; If the equality relationship on return values can be eq?, it may make
;;; sense to cache values returned by the function.  Choosing the right
;;; equality relation on arguments is tricky.
;;;


;;; {pure-funcq}
;;;
;;; The simplest case of pure functions are those in which results
;;; are only certainly eq? if all of the arguments are.  These functions
;;; are called "pure-funcq", for obvious reasons.
;;;
