+# that in turn use polymorphic dispatch; this to not clutter EvaluatorImpl with too much responsibility).

+# Since a pattern is used, only the main entry points are fully documented. The parameters _o_ and _scope_ are

+# either the actual class, or one of its super classes). The _scope_ parameter is always the scope in which
+# the evaluation takes place. If nothing else is mentioned, the return is always the result of evaluation.
