Do I look like a madman? [Don't answer]
The expressions are parsed when they're loaded, so any function must exist before it can be referenced. The only recursion allowed is for a function to call itself, but looped recursion [A -> B -> A] won't be allowed.
The syntax has actually not failed me yet and it is [for an interpreted script] quite efficient. Once created, an expression can be called multiple times with different data and it all works very nicely. It's just this load order that is getting on my unmentionables.

Excellent plan. You can't imagine how many brilliant subroutines and functions I've written on cocktail napkins. Sometimes you just need to lubricate the neurons a bit.

You just need the conceptual idea of a compiler-compiler.
You create build process that creates a minimal set of initial functions. The implementation of that is a tool which does its job without relying on the elegance of the dynamic interface.

In Brazil people can't have guns, and the govern is "awesome", because we can't fight.

I have decided to open a chain of Bars and Night Clubs simply called "Moderation".
It could be a franchise opportunity for some CP members as well.
Down here it is mandatory for all alcohol advertising to bare the slogan; "Drink in Moderation".
So we will not ever have to advertise as all our competitors will be doing this for us.

Yeah, and people are in the Moderation queue waiting for approval from the Moderator (bouncer)

Yeah there is always a moderator. I forgot about that.
Many years ago, a gig that I was running successfully for about 2.5 years went AWOL.
The martial arts bouncer was no where to be found.
I was pissed off because presence was to be primary in reducing altercations, just being there with chest out helps.
Found him in cubicle 11, with blood all over the floor, after the incident. None of it was his blood.
There was a huge all in brawl that lasted for about 18 minutes.
I was OK as I only had to block a couple of random punches.
The Police shut us down that night.
It never ever returned. Such a shame

Up here in Brisbane back in the late 80's there used to be a nightclub that had only one way in and out - via a small elevator. (Sometime after this story the Firies shut it down under fire safety laws.)
It was fairly customary in this club for the bouncers to give you a bit of a touch-up in the elevator on the way down if you were being escorted off the premises. You knew you were in strife if as you were being marched out the bouncers took off their shirts and handed them to the manager (presumably to stop them from having blood on them) before getting into the lift.
So... one night, a couple of people I know were in there having a good time, when for one reason or another they were asked to leave... The two of them were escorted to the lifts, and the bouncers took their shirts off to hand to the manager, and the lift doors closed and punches flew thick and fast.
Once the lift reached the ground floor, the two people I know exited the lifts, leaving the bouncers in a screaming heap on the floor of the lift and hit the button to send them back to the manager.
True story.
