- bool - Good ol' `true` and `false`
- numbers - Currently these are double-precision floats. This might be expanded to other numeric types.
- strings - Immutable byte string

A function can contain multiple subfunctions, each with their own parameter list and their own body (everything after the parameter list up to the next parameter list or the eon of the function). When being called, the first subfunction, which parameter list matches the arguments ist getting evaluated This can for example be used to provide a default argument:
