    //! @ingroup group-functional
    //! Return a function computing the fixed point of a function.
    //!
    //! `fix` is an implementation of the [Y-combinator][], also called the
    //! fixed-point combinator. It encodes the idea of recursion, and in fact
    //! any recursive function can be written in terms of it.
    //!
    //! Specifically, `fix(f)` is a function such that
    //! @code
    //!     fix(f)(x...) == f(fix(f), x...)
    //! @endcode
    //!
    //! This definition allows `f` to use its first argument as a continuation
    //! to call itself recursively. Indeed, if `f` calls its first argument
    //! with `y...`, it is equivalent to calling `f(fix(f), y...)` per the
    //! above equation.
    //!
    //! Most of the time, it is more convenient and efficient to define
    //! recursive functions without using a fixed-point combinator. However,
    //! there are some cases where `fix` provides either more flexibility
    //! (e.g. the ability to change the callback inside `f`) or makes it
    //! possible to write functions that couldn't be defined recursively
    //! otherwise.
    //!
    //! @param f
    //! A function called as `f(self, x...)`, where `x...` are the arguments
    //! in the `fix(f)(x...)` expression and `self` is `fix(f)`.
    //!
    //! ### Example
    //! @include example/functional/fix.cpp
    //!
