* test_functions: properly add dependencies of the array on test functions and test names so that the order comes out correctly. * fix lowering of struct literals to add parentheses around the type name. * omit const qualifier in slices because otherwise slices cannot be reassigned even when they are local variables. * special case pointer to functions and double pointer to functions in renderTypeAndName. This code will need to be cleaned up but for now it helps us make progress on other C backend stuff. * fix slice element access to lower to `.ptr[` instead of `[`. * airSliceElemVal: respect volatile slices
A general-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software.

The ultimate goal of the Zig project is to serve users. As a first-order effect, this means users of the compiler, helping programmers to write better software. Even more important, however, are the end-users.
Zig is intended to be used to help end-users accomplish their goals. Zig should be used to empower end-users, never to exploit them financially, or to limit their freedom to interact with hardware or software in any way.
However, such problems are best solved with social norms, not with software licenses. Any attempt to complicate the software license of Zig would risk compromising the value Zig provides.
Therefore, Zig is available under the MIT (Expat) License, and comes with a humble request: use it to make software better serve the needs of end-users.
This project redistributes code from other projects, some of which have other licenses besides MIT. Such licenses are generally similar to the MIT license for practical purposes. See the subdirectories and files inside lib/ for more details.
