Description
constant::defer creates a subroutine which on the first call runs given code to calculate its value, and on any subsequent calls just returns that value, like a constant. The value code is discarded once run, allowing it to be garbage collected.
Deferring a calculation is good if it might take a lot of work or produce a big result but is only needed sometimes or only well into a program run. If it's never needed then the value code never runs.
