C 模板元编程图灵完备吗？

C 模板图灵完备吗？

一个广泛流传的说法是 C 模板在编译时是图灵完备的。这意味着模板可用于表示和执行任何可计算函数。

计算示例

这是用 C 实现的图灵机的重要示例11 使用模板：

#include <iostream>

template<bool C, typename A, typename B>
struct Conditional {
    typedef A type;
};

template<typename A, typename B>
struct Conditional<false, A, B> {
    typedef B type;
};

template<typename...>
struct ParameterPack;

template<bool C, typename = void>
struct EnableIf { };

template<typename Type>
struct EnableIf<true, Type> {
    typedef Type type;
};

template<typename T>
struct Identity {
    typedef T type;
};

// define a type list 
template<typename...>
struct TypeList;

template<typename T, typename... TT>
struct TypeList<T, TT...>  {
