handling __add__ and others via a means

[robertleeplummerjr]

Python supports operator overriding, js does not. Perhaps there is a way to achieve this using some means. Documentation comes to mind, maybe comments, what else could potentially be used?

Documentation? you mean some kind of comment?

Transcrypt marks the regions of code containing the aritmetic expressions so that the transpiler knows when to transform them so that any possible per-type override is taken into consideration.

The best thing to do though would be for the transpiler to recognize via type hints that a + b is an expression involving an intance of type A which has an __add__ method defined and automatically transpile it to a.__add__(b), but there's still much stuff to do before having that...
