Will anonymous function be supported by wenyan-lang? Currently it seems we always need to have a name, and start functions with 吾有 int_num 術 reference_single_statement 欲行是術, which is not very flexible. For example. we want to express object like

var obj = {
  a: function () { return 42; }
}

But according to the syntax, object properties are made up of either value or identifier. So we may have to define it before we assign it to a property.

As function_arg is defined as

必先得 num type [assign identifier] 是術曰|乃行是術曰

we might be unable to define a function with different types of args, for example

public void function test(String arg1, Integer arg2, String arg3) {
  ...
}

Moreover, we might need to use variable number of args in some cases, and most languages support that, for example,

print(a, b, c, d)
