Since TeX is turing complete and allows macros, would it be possible to create a set of macros that are not ambiguous? For instance, an integral macro that specifies the limits and differential variable?
\integrate{0}{\infty}{r}{sin(\theta)} In this case it seems to me that the latex macros would closely approximate the actual linear input to the CAS.
