I've got it performing rather nicely now, for it's completeness.
parseOperand()
returns an { ident, int, double, string, regexp, expression, arrayliteral, objectliteral *value* }
incomplete for e notation numbers
incomplete for expression, arrayliteral, objectliteral
parseBinaryOperator()
returns one of the binary operator tokens
parseOptionalWS()
consumes whitespace and doesn't return anything
I've got some more written, but they're not tested. Once I have numbers done, I'll try writing the arrayLiteral, which will of course, parseOperand() "," parseOperand()
: )
