Abstract
A method and system provide the ability to process source computer instructions. The source computer instructions are obtained and include input statements that consist of two functions and one or more arguments. The two functions are competing with each other for consumption of the one or more arguments. For an input statement, an inherent numeric precedence weight is determined for each function and argument. All possible legal configurations of the functions and arguments are determined and consist of different groupings of the functions and arguments. A score is assigned to each grouping and consists of a sum of the weights within each different grouping. The grouping and legal configuration having the highest score is selected. The input statements are compiled into executable code using the selected different grouping.
