For people who aren't used to lisp,

def f (x y) let z (* x y) * (- z x) (- z y)

is awful, especially since they'll automatically group "(* x y) * (- z x)" as an expression. :) But maybe your indentation fixed that.

I'm almost certain that Eli meant to write:

    def f (x y)
      let z (* x y)
        * (- z x) (- z y)

Exactly so, thank you. I've since Googled to find how to do code formatting, so I shouldn't have this problem in the future. Thanks for posting the correct code.
