	Strategy here is to process things as you see them, but be able to push things onto stack when only half-finished, for example 4 + (3 + (5 + (7 + 9)))		Strategy here is to process things as you see them, but be able to push things onto stack when only half-finished, for example 4 + (3 + (5 + (7 + 9)))

			The algorithm looks like this:

			<pre>
			while there are still tokens left in input queue:
			read a token
			if number,
			create single-node expression
			if prior item in stack is unbalanced operator, and prior char was not (
			add to operator.right and push finished expression onto stack
			if operator
			create three-node expression with operator as parent
			operator.left = pop from stack
			push entire expression onto stack
			if close parentheses,
			if top of stack is unfinished operator, throw exception
			otherwise do nothing
			if open parentheses
			start single-node expression
			</pre>


			When open parentheses, take whatever you were currently working on and push it on the stack
