+/**
+ *  Function.h
+ * 
+ *  Small extension to the Value class that allows a value to be 
+ *  constructed with a std::function. 
+ * 
+ *  If you want to assign a std::function to a value, the following
+ *  piece of code won't work:
+ * 
+ *      Php::Value value([]() { .... });
+ * 
+ *  Because the passed in function would match with many of the possible
+ *  Value constructors. For that reason we have created a small and 
+ *  simple Function class that can be used instead:
+ * 
+ *      Php::Function valu([]() { .... });
+ * 
+ *  A Php::Function is an extended Php::Value object, so can be used
+ *  in place of Php::Values all the time. The only difference is that
+ *  it has a different constructor
+ *
