made-up syntax for mixing static and dynamic typing, and variable and immutable variables, all in the same language at the same time!
//any type, variable value
*a = 7; //make a new variable and set it to 7
a = "hello"; //its a var, so we can set it to something of a different type
//one type, variable value
Text b;
b = "some text";
b = 7; //throws
//any type, permanent value

//1. native operators, best looking but depends on primitive types or operator overloading
if (1 + 5 - 2 <= 9) return;
//2. methods, correct java-inspired design employed by most modules
if (int(1).add(5).subtract(2).lessThanOrEqualTo(9)) return;
//3. first custom design, works alongside 2
if (int(1)._("+", 5)._("-", 2)._("<=", 9)) return;

stream workshop ideas
[big file]
read a small file into memory to get its size
read a big file into memory, see that break
fix it with a stream that counts the bytes as they come in
[zip]
zip a file
unzip a file
