I was thiking the dmd compiler did CTFE without someone ask for this, in the way as I've mentioned, checking for constant arguments + function's purity and if all this is true, it did the CTFE rather than generate code to compute it at run-time. In the case of it did happen, I just wanted to know. It was my misunderstsooding how it does works in dmd.
Yeah, that would be constant folding. The compiler is free to do that. It's just not called "CTFE" then.
