    (var i 2)
    (while (<= i n) {
        (set toret (* toret i))
        (set i (+ i 1))
    })
    (return toret)
}))

Ackermann function

(define ack (lambda (m n) {
    (if (= m 0) {
        (+ n 1)
    } {
        (if (= n 0) {
            (ack (- m 1) 1)
        } {
            (ack (- m 1) (ack m (- n 1)))
        })
