ParseValueNode() protected static method

Given a list of tokens and the index, get a node based on whatever is at that index
protected static ParseValueNode ( List tokenList, int &curIndex, Equation owner ) : BaseNode
tokenList List Token list.
curIndex int Current index.
owner Equation the equation that this node is part of. required to pull function delegates out of the dictionary
return BaseNode
