Seems someone over there is a D fan.

D's immutable, pure, etc are among the 'killer features' of D, in 
my opinion. IIRC Carmack wrote an article about this and heavily 
referenced D throughout on how D got it right.

I would say he *heavily* references D, but he does mention it in 
a blog post he wrote:

"It seems like there is a sound case for a pure keyword in future 
C/C++ standards.  There are close parallels with const – an 
optional qualifier that allows compile time checking of 
programmer intention and will never hurt, and could often help, 
code generation.  The D programming language does offer a pure 
keyword:  http://www.d-programming-language.org/function.html  
Note their distinction between weak and strong purity – you need 
to also have const input references and pointers to be strongly 
pure."
