The byte compiler produces compiled-function objects. The evaluator handles this data type specially when it appears as a function to be called. See Byte Compilation, for information about the byte compiler.
The printed representation for a compiled-function object is normally
‘#<compiled-function...>’. If print-readably is true,
however, it is ‘#[...]’.
