25/// This is an important base class in LLVM. It provides the common facilities
26/// of all constant values in an LLVM program. A constant is a value that is
27/// immutable at runtime. Functions are constants because their address is
28/// immutable. Same with global variables.
29///
30/// All constants share the capabilities provided in this class. All constants
31/// can have a null value. They can have an operand list. Constants can be
32/// simple (integer and floating point values), complex (arrays and structures),
33/// or expression based (computations yielding a constant value composed of
34/// only certain operators and other constant values).
35///
36/// Note that Constants are immutable (once created they never change)
37/// and are fully shared by structural equivalence. This means that two
38/// structurally equivalent constants will always have the same address.
39/// Constants are created on demand as needed and never deleted: thus clients
40/// don't have to worry about the lifetime of the objects.
