#8 multi parameter functions

[Anonymous]

It would be great if one could use expressive
parameter names instead of only 'x' in self defined
multi parameter functions . At the moment it's
only 'x' and the parameters are x(1):x(2): ...
After some time this makes it difficult to remember
what is the meaning of which parameter ( especially if
there are several of them ).

Or at least add a comment field , where the calling
parameters can be described to the user.

Here's a workaround: assign the positions of the parameters to
variables.

Example (compute s(a,t)=1/2 a * t^2 ):

a=1
t=2
s()="1/2 * x(a) * x(t)^2"

s(9.8:1)
-> 4.9

While this is not the pinnacle of readability, it is an
improvement.
