 It is also possible to use @ttype@ polymorphism to provide arbitrary argument forwarding functions. For example, it is possible to write @new@ as a library function:
 \begin{lstlisting}
-struct Pair(otype R, otype S);
+struct pair(otype R, otype S);
 forall(otype R, otype S)
-void ?{}(Pair(R, S) *, R, S);  // (1)
+void ?{}(pair(R, S) *, R, S);  // (1)
 
 forall(dtype T, ttype Params | sized(T) | { void ?{}(T *, Params); })

 \end{lstlisting}
 The @new@ function provides the combination of type-safe @malloc@ with a constructor call, so that it becomes impossible to forget to construct dynamically allocated objects. This function provides the type-safety of @new@ in \CC, without the need to specify the allocated type again, thanks to return-type inference.
 
-In the call to @new@, @Pair(double, char)@ is selected to match @T@, and @Params@ is expanded to match @[double, char]@. The constructor (1) may be specialized to  satisfy the assertion for a constructor with an interface compatible with @void ?{}(Pair(int, char) *, int, char)@.
