I think it's just normal tokenizing. `..-` is a legal name for an operator. An error is given since no operator of that name is in scope. The alternative of this getting parsed as a range operator and a negative number now and changing

You might already be familiar with it, but this looks a lot like QML.

Maybe it is because you didn't show an example, but that doesn't seem like something caused by lazy evaluation. It is pretty easy to get into infinite loops due to logic errors in Project Euler type problems even when using impera

>In many of the discussions about people giving up "TV," it turned out that many just turned off their cable and consumed video through Hulu, Netflix and other online sources. So you mean they've been superseded by more addictive techno
