This does not offer code, only the list of formals. If you want help with 
coding, then you should provide some. I remember a posting by Gabor 
Grothendieck on StackOverflow (where he cited another blogger) where he 
demonstrated how to implement a postfix "+" function like that of C, that I 
_think_ might address this question but without a MWE and desired result I 
cannot do any testing.
