 ## Example
 
 Now take exactly the same example as in [Macros](./macros.md). Assume that we

 the value, also at run-time. Note, how we make a future-stage function of type

 expression at runtime. Within the scope of `staging.run` we can also invoke `show` on an expression
 to get a source-like representation of the expression.
