Looks like this concept is out there. FRP (Functional reactive programming), or as I like to call it FAP (functional adaptive programming ;P), is the idea that values (return values even) can change over time and therefore all statements depending on those values will re-evaluate. I like this concept. It's almost like all values can be streams of values. I like how Elm (programming language/DSL) calls them signals because they're almost like streams, but hold a value at any given time (I suppose). I really wish JS had this implementation.
