Example from the web:

package Sorting api;

fn Partition[T:! Comparable & Movable](s: Slice(T))
     -> i64 {
  var i: i64 = -1;

  for (e: T in s) {
    if (e <= s.Last()) {
      ++i;
      Swap(&s[i], &e);
    }
  }
  return i;
}

fn QuickSort[T:! Comparable & Movable](s: Slice(T)) {
  if (s.Size() <= 1) {
    return;
  }
  let p: i64 = Partition(s);
  QuickSort(s[:p - 1]));
  QuickSort(s[p + 1:]));
}

Example from Compiler Explorer:

package sample api;

fn Square(x: i32) -> i32 {
  return x * x;
}

fn Main() -> i32 {
  return Square(12);
}
