When dealing with certain checks, namely the name check, the code can enter an infinite loop if the file end is reached during the while loop. The solution was to change the parameter to p_input and make a local variable called input that is equal to p_input + " ".

There is actually another infinite loop in the code. When testing, I found that this would hang.:
console.log(lexer("add"));This is caused by the while loop for names assuming that there is always a character following text. This patch fixes this by adding a space to the end of the lexer input, which is used to cause these while loops to exit.
