Lazy Evaluation

Escript now supports lazy evaluation [18]. Lazy evaluation is when expressions are not evaluated until it is actually needed. When applied to suitable problems, it can reduce both the memory and cpu time required to perform a simulation. This implementation is designed to be as transparent as possible; so significant alterations to scripts are not required.
