Each [] pair of brackets encloses an in-line function.  The first token in a function is the function name, and subsequent tokens, if any, the parameters.  Functions can be nested.

The * function multiplies a series of numbers.  The product is initialized to 1 before the first term.  A side-effect is that just "*" without any parameter returns 1.  The "+" function adds two 1s to make 2.  The "/" function divides the first parameter by the seconds, so 1 divided by 2.  The result is 1/2.

The spaces are enforced for readability, and to simplify the parsing rules.  This NOT a golfing language.
