would be a sexy way of doing it. But, ugh, probably that would just be confusing? As it is, the * operator converts both sides to numbers. But I could add a rule that applies only if left side is a string and right side is a number. Maybe? No ... too confusing ... I think. Maybe. Would the other compiler creators laugh at me? I hate those guys, with their framed university diplomas and silly golf pants! No!
