This is too vague for commentary. If you claim that you have digested all of "The R Language Definition", "R Internals", and "R Installation and Administration", (all of which are shipped with the standard R distro) then I suggest you are either the wisest man on Earth, or you should be evaluated by a psychiatrist who is also a skilled R programmer.

If you run candidate text through the `parse`-function you can determine whether it is syntactically evaluable. But then what?
