  It would be really useful if you could also specify the operation which
is performed.
  That is, as a sum it is something like:

result = 0;
for(n=initial_value; n<=final_value; ++n) result = result + expression(n);

  This would be much more useful if it were more generic, that is:

result = 0;
for(n=initial_value; n<=final_value; ++n) result = expression(result, n);

if you understand what I mean.
  You could implement a sum, a multiplication or whatever you want.

  It would be nice if the parameters to a function could be vectors as well
as floats. This would be useful in some situations.
