Another thing that would be good is if you could assign a variable a part
of
another so
atom a
sequence b

b={1,2,3,4}
a=assign(b,2)
a=5
now b={1,5,3,4}
b[2]=7
now a=7
and if b[2]={2} then it gives a type check error because "a" is an "atom"
!!!!
that would be very very useful, and faster!!!!! than always subscripting
