I have written a simple program in Monkey PL (see specification in https://interpreterbook.com/):

let fib = fn(x){
  if(x>-1){
    if(x<2){return x}
    fib(x-1)+fib(x-2)
  }   
}

let max = fn(x,y){if(x>y){x} else {}}

let simple_faulhaber  = fn(x){
  if(x==0){
      return 0
  }
  if(x>0){
    x + simple_faulhaber(x-1)
  }
}

When testing my functions in the repl, everything seems to work:

>> fib(13)
233
>> max(3,2)
3
>> simple_faulhaber(13)
91
max(simple_faulhaber(13), fib(13))*2

However, when I ask for an evaluation of max(simple_faulhaber(13), fib(13))*2 in the repl, the evaluator panics:

>> max(simple_faulhaber(13), fib(13))*2
panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x20 pc=0x4b7d57]

Can someone please explain to me, why?
