I'm confused as to how exactly this is done. I'm reading a book that quotes "Parameters are always passed by value" in HLSL. Does that mean you cannot generate anything in shaders? If so, what do ppl mean by "GPU Generation"?

i have no idea what they mean by the sentence but the cup of tea is that you can pass parameters to HLSL which contain a value. Inside the HLSL code you can create new variables that alter the incomming values or create new once. These you can use for your "output".
