In fact, it can get extremely close:

And since you can define your own operators, you could just go all of the way.

You can't define operator precedence though!! (That's a good thing). There was once a Julia talk about a really old programming language which disallowed any operator groupings without parens except for the basic seven or eight.

also string macros are cheating!
