there is no length function, because there are no numbers.
Isn't that circular?

The biggest problems with numbers are modifying the lexer to deal with
numbers, and then the interpreter to know how to add both strings and
functions.  I think that having two sets of operators is very
non-intuitive, so I don't want to do that.
