Re:Klong: A Simple Array Language

This looks more like an interpreter.
What I mean is just take the symbols in Klong and write them as methods on arrays. Sure the syntax won't be the same, but does that really warrant a whole new language?

Why not a whole language when so many problems can be easily reduced to these few methods?
It's worth noting that almost all array languages are interpreted, and iteratively constructing a program in the interpreter is common. This style would be painful in a more verbose and lower-level language but works great for ultra-high-level array languages.
