Current Problem at the moment
Traceback (most recent call last):

NameError: name 'start' is not defined
anyone know how to make start defined
"start-point" is not a valid identifier as the "-" isn't permitted
in a variable name. This is the case for just about every language
out there. HTML/XML & CSS are the only languages that come to my
mind in which the dash is considered a valid part of an identifier.
I believe that Cobol allows "-" in names.
Lisp certainly does.
