/*
Predicate package used to create interpreted mini languages with Go syntax - mostly to define
various predicates for configuration, e.g. Latency() > 40 || ErrorRate() > 0.5.

Here's an example of fully functional predicate language to deal with division remainders:

    // takes number and returns true or false
    type numberPredicate func(v int) bool

    // Converts one number to another
    type numberMapper func(v int) int

    // Function that creates predicate to test if the remainder is 0
    func divisibleBy(divisor int) numberPredicate {
	    return func(v int) bool {
		    return v%divisor == 0
        }
    }

    // Function - logical operator AND that combines predicates
    func numberAND(a, b numberPredicate) numberPredicate {
        return func(v int) bool {
            return a(v) && b(v)
        }
    }

    p, err := NewParser(Def{
		Operators: Operators{
			AND: numberAND,
		},
		Functions: map[string]interface{}{
			"DivisibleBy": divisibleBy,
		},
	})

	pr, err := p.Parse("DivisibleBy(2) && DivisibleBy(3)")
    if err == nil {
        fmt.Fatalf("Error: %v", err)
    }
    pr.(numberPredicate)(2) // false
    pr.(numberPredicate)(3) // false
    pr.(numberPredicate)(6) // true
*/

// Def contains supported operators (e.g. LT, GT) and functions passed in as a map.
type Def struct {
