Metafunctions
Metafunctions - also known as "traits" or "trait classes" -
return types, constants or functions for a set of given types or constants.
They can be seen as part of a (meta-)program that is
evaluated at compile time to produce a C++ program.
Read here an introduction to metafunctions and how to use them.
