In essence you can make the compiler run code at compile time to generate code involving complex compile time computations.


Which hopefully even you use very seldom.

I have been doing code generation since the 80's (or perhaps early 90s?)
I have done it in many languages. Mostly one shot but sometimes even as part of the build.
No need to do it as you describe though. There is enough complexity in what I do.
