//! Evaluate a lazy value and return it.
//! @relates hana::lazy
//!
//! Given a lazy expression `expr`, `eval` evaluates `expr` and returns
//! the result as a normal value. However, for convenience, `eval` can
//! also be used with nullary and unary function objects. Specifically,
//! if `expr` is not a `hana::lazy`, it is called with no arguments at
//! all and the result of that call (`expr()`) is returned. Otherwise,
//! if `expr()` is ill-formed, then `expr(hana::id)` is returned instead.
//! If that expression is ill-formed, then a compile-time error is
//! triggered.
//!
//! The reason for allowing nullary callables in `eval` is because this
//! allows using nullary lambdas as lazy branches to `eval_if`, which
//! is convenient. The reason for allowing unary callables and calling
//! them with `hana::id` is because this allows deferring the
//! compile-time evaluation of selected expressions inside the callable.
//! How this can be achieved is documented by `hana::eval_if`.
//!
//!
//! Example
//! -------
//! @include example/eval.cpp
