Assuming I have a function like
foo = 8 + f1
where f1 = 8 + 9
f2 = 8 + 10
f1
clearly has to be evaluated, but f2
doesn't have to be. Will it be though? I can see how evaluating every where
expression would be a performance issue.

Yes, it's lazy, so that
f2
will not be evaluated, for example:will be calculated instantly, and would take forever if it was strict.
