GridFlow does this. Listlength is variable. All basic operations like that
are in the [@] class, so you'd do [@ *] for multiplication. You can also
do something like [@ * 3] for multiplication by the constant 3 (whatever
the listlength is), and so on.

Since GridFlow converts to its own listlike datatype (called "grid") for
improved performance, you have to convert it back using [@export_list].

It also can sum all elements in a list (using [@fold +]), and dozens of
other operations.
