/**
 * Allows functions to be defined in equations.
 *  * XJep > Define("half",1,"x/2")
 * XJep > half(5)
 * 
 * 
 * Currently the Define function is handled in the preprocessing step
 * 
 * Node n = xj.parse("Define(\"sumToX\",1,\"x*(x+1)/2\")");
 * Node preproc = xj.preprocess(n);
 * 
 * and preproc will be null if a Define statement is encountered.
 * This is probably a bug.
 * 
 * TODO improve syntax. So can have Define("half(x)",x/2)
 * TODO work out how to simplify and evaluate Define statements which don't really have a value. 
 * TODO fix parser so can do half(x) = x/2
