	// possible results it returns. These partial hints take the form of a
	// function type signature (with as many types in it specified and the
	// rest set to nil) and any known static values for the input args. If
	// the partial type is not nil, then the Ord parameter must be of the
	// correct arg length. If any types are specified, then the array must
	// be of that length as well, with the known ones filled in. Some
	// static polymorphic functions require a minimal amount of hinting or
	// they will be unable to return any possible result that is not
	// infinite in length. If you expect to need to return an infinite (or
	// very large) amount of results, then you should return an error
	// instead. The arg names in your returned func type signatures should
