A brief comment on function composition:

One can look at the various MappingPackage(s). In particular, MappingPackage3 
provides function composition using '*', as well as other functional operations 
such as curryLeft and curryRight. One can then do the following in the 
interpreter:

p(x:Integer):Boolean == x>1
q(x:Boolean):Boolean == not x
map(q * p, [1,2]) -- or
map(not$Boolean * p, [1,2])

which are reasonably elegant. In Spad, one would first use "import 
MappingPackage3(Integer,Boolean,Boolean)" (for *), as alluded to by Waldek, and 
"import ListFunctions2(Integer,Boolean)" (for map) - which are less than 
elegant.

Kindly, Mark.
