## Expressions
### Distributions
<SquiggleEditor initialSquiggleString={`mixture(1 to 2, 3, [0.3, 0.7])`} />
### Numbers
<SquiggleEditor initialSquiggleString="4.32" />
### Arrays
<SquiggleEditor
initialSquiggleString={`[beta(1,10), 4, isNormalized(toSampleSet(1 to 2))]`}
/>
### Records
<SquiggleEditor
initialSquiggleString={`d = {dist: triangular(0, 1, 2), weight: 0.25}
d.dist`}
/>
## Statements
A statement assigns expressions to names. It looks like `<symbol> = <expression>`
<SquiggleEditor
initialSquiggleString={`value_of_work = 10 to 70
5 + value_of_work / 75`}
/>
### Functions
We can define functions
<SquiggleEditor
initialSquiggleString={`ozzie_estimate(t) = lognormal(t^(1.1), 0.5)
nuno_estimate(t, m) = mixture(normal(-5, 1), lognormal(m, t / 1.25))
ozzie_estimate(1) * nuno_estimate(1, 1)`}
/>
