# What this teaches:
#   • Generic functions with angle-bracket type and 尺寸 parameters.
#   • Related keywords: 函式, 類型, 尺寸
#
# Common mistakes:
#   • Type parameter not satisfying bounds — generic parameters must meet any constraints declared on the generic function or 類型.

# =============================================================================

# Generic functions with angle-bracket type parameters
#
# Type and size parameters appear in `<...>` before value parameters.
#
# GRAMMAR:
#   funcDecl :← '函式' ident genericParams? '(' valueParams ')' ...
#   genericParams :← '<' (ident | '尺寸' ident) (',' (ident | '尺寸' ident))* '>'
#
# EXPECTED OUTPUT:
#   generic function signatures paratae

# BACKEND: Generic call codegen gap on Rust (`T: Clone`; whitelist: generic/generic.fab).
# Call sites are deferred in this smoke exemplar.
