+by LWASM.
+
+The core of the entire expression handler is the opaque type LWVAL, pointers
+to which are passed around to keep track of values. A value may be a simple
+integer or it could be a more complex expression linked by operators or it
+could be a polynomial expression. Simple integers are merely a degenerate
+case of polynomials.
+
+The package understands the following operations:
+
+addition
+subtraction
+multiplication
+division
+modulus
+parentheses
+unary negation
+unary "positive"
+bitwise and
+bitwise or
+bitwise not (1's complement)
+bitwise exclusive or
+
+Infix operators can be expressed as LWVAL <op> LWVAL. Thus, the order of
+operations is only relevant when initially parsing the expression. The order
+of evaluation is determined by what appears on either side of the <op> as
+an LWVAL may be an expression.
