```
protected void reduce()
```
    This method is called when we reach the point where we must subEval a trinary operation in the expression. (ie. val1 op val2). This is not the same as a binary operation, although binary operations would appear to have 3 structures as well. A binary structure (or also a junction in the expression) compares the current state against 2 downrange structures (usually an op and a val).

    getCursor in interface Parser
  - getExpression
