 101 <p>The three arguments are to the left, so we can “chop off” everything to
 102 the right and say it’s the definition of the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">quadratic</span></code> function:</p>

 113 <p>If you look at the Joy evaluation trace you can see that the first few

 115 by incorporating the values on the stack. Then that program runs and you
 116 get the results. This is pretty typical of Joy code.</p>
