yacc'ing functions and parameters

I'm building an interpreter (sorry, couldn't find a comp.interpreters)
and have some questions about the implementation of function
calls. How would you go about lex'ing and yacc'ing functions with
parameters? Say you had a function table that contained the names,
number and types of parameters, and a pointer to the actual
function. But how would I go about getting the parameters into the
function, doing type checking, and that sort of thing? Is there a
chunk of example code somewhere?
[My invariable advice is to translate into some sort of easy-to-interpret
code, either RPN or trees, and the interpret that, rather than trying to
interpret the source code directly. -John]
