Possibly Python? ie instead of having the cleverness in g-code, have
it in a higher level language that produces g-code.

I admit I am (very) new to this whole field, but from what I can see
g-code might be seen as equivalent to machine code and it is often
best produced by a higher-level language. (metaphorical compilation)

However, constant names in g-code can be computed, so in principle,
and with patience you can achieve array-like functionality.

ie, if #1 = 3 then #[#1] evaluates as #3 (or so I seem to recall
reading, I have never used it)
