C++ superiority
(lemmy.nz)
With a bit of fiddeling you can use every kind of bracket to basically make function calls in c++
Here are the links to the snippets, all compile and run

Only one of those is a function, get it right. () Call functions <> Specialize Templates, can be used to do compile time calls to things that behave like functions. [] Accesses elements {} Calls constructors, aka functions that do the initial setup.
Overloading these to do something else gets you in the naughty corner.
Edit: the implementation of the {} fuckery is no great. Just save the sum instead of all numbers.
Good point regarding the {} implementation.
I disagree slightly regarding your point that these aren't function calls. Yes technically they are different things but effectively they are functions, I cann pass arguments and get a result based on some operations.
Of course not all of these can do anything but only the constexpr value is actually pretty limited. The other ones are straight up functions
