## Functions 2
### Immutable function args by default, mutable args have to be marked on call
### Immutable function args by default
In V function args are immutable by default, mutable args have to be marked on call.
Since there are also no globals, that means that functions' return values are a function of their
arguments only, and their evaluation has no side effects (unless the function uses I/O).
In V function arguments are immutable by default.
Function arguments are immutable by default even when [references](#references) are passed.

Note that V is not a purely functional language however.
There is a compiler flag to enable global variables (`-enable-globals`), but this is
intended for low-level applications like kernels and drivers.
### Mutable arguments

## Concurrency
### Spawning Concurrent Tasks
V's model of concurrency is going to be very similar to Go's. For now, `go foo()` runs `foo()` concurrently in
a different thread:

Sometimes it is necessary to wait until a parallel thread has finished. This can
be done by assigning a *handle* to the started thread and calling the `wait()` method
