```vector(1,2,3,4)``` adds a vector, ```vector(1 2)``` as well. The start is now the origin.
commas are not mandatory. I'm planning to add a more mathematical notation for vectors: ```[1 2]```

* lazy evaluation. The difference between ```c = a+b``` and ```c = "a+b"``` * lazy evaluation. The difference between ```c = a+b``` and ```c = "a+b"```
is that the latter assigns to c a parsed expression that can always be evaluated later. is that the latter assigns to ```c``` a parsed expression that can always be evaluated later.

automatically. Combined with vector dragging, this way you can get an intuition for vector addition. automatically. Combined with vector dragging, this way you can get an intuition for vector addition.
