It was written as a experiment in how far one could take the optional compile-time executability offered by `constexpr` specifically and the C++ template metaprogramming facilities in general. While basic _Cons_ structures and appropriate accessor functions turned out to be quite straight forward to implement, the current problem is the absence of workable arbitrary value comparison in a templated context if one doesn't want to be limited to values that can be used as template parameters such as integers. This means that it is currently impossible to e.g. filter a list using `foldr`.
+Note that these restrictions were overcome in my [second attempt] at this problem which follows the concept of viewing types as values and templates as functions.

## Current features
- `Cons` class template for representing constant list structures at compile time

…is a template metaprogramming library intended for compile time computation written in C++.
-As its name implies it follows the overall concept of viewing types as values and templates as functions manipulating those values. This view on template metaprogramming lends itself quite well to a _Scheme_ like way of doing functional programming.

-_TypeAsValue_ is currently primarily a reimplementation of my previous attempt at this problem: [ConstList]. As detailed in the appropriate [blog article] the mixed approach between generic lambda expressions, `constexpr` marked functions and template metaprogramming doesn't offer sufficient flexibility which led me to approach compile time computation in a slightly different manner via this new library.
+This library is a expanded reimplementation of my previous attempt at this problem: [ConstList]. As detailed in the appropriate [blog article] the mixed approach between generic lambda expressions, `constexpr` marked functions and template metaprogramming doesn't offer sufficient flexibility which led me to approach compile time computation in a slightly different manner via this new library. As one might notice this boils down to using _Scheme_ as a metaphor for C++ template metaprogramming. In fact all [test cases] and examples are documented by representing their logic in _Scheme_.
