true and undefined = undefined

Yes, of course Taldor, but what my concern was, how will undefined be defined?  :D

The idea is that undefined is some sort of a bottom (-less calculation), meaning that it is a calculation that will never end. The problem with this, is the computer will never reach an end-state in finite time.
