// a digit is a syntax error. the only number literal is ::difference<'a', 'b'>,
// the distance between two characters. 'F' - 'A' is 5. ::emit takes a type, and a
// value is not a type, so wrap it in ::decltype(...) to make it one
::emit<::decltype(::difference<'F', 'A'>)>::commit;
// arithmetic is ::sum, ::product and ::quotient.
// no operators
// no precedence
// no problem

::sum<
::difference<'F', 'A'>,
::difference<'C', 'A'>

// ::integral_constant<::size_t, V>::value is V. it exists so you can write more
// ::extent<T>::value is the length of an array type, and 0 for anything else
