* Things you can do with an Expression:
|
|
* - evaluate it using an interpreter
|
|
* - execute it on a VM
|
|
* - compile using LLVM
|
|
* see xo-jit/

* Expressions are immutable. This means they can resused
|
|
* across jit interactions
|
|

|
|
* Every expression evaluates to a value with a particular type
