Same as issue 19.

If 3n means 3*n, what are we going to do with n3? Is it n*3 or is it a variable named
n3? If we do the former, variables can't contain numbers anymore (which is a severe
limitation and backward incompatible). If we the latter, things don't get quite
consistent and would lead to confusion.
