CHAPTER 13: PREDICATE FUNCTIONS
- Corrections
-
- page 84, lines 3 - 4: Change
> (packagep (in-package 'test))
T
to
> (packagep (defpackage test))
T
- page 85, line 16: Change function to
number.
- page 86, line 18: Change return to
be.
- Notes
-
- Do Exercises 13.1 - 13.3 to the extent you feel you need to in
order to feel comfortable with these functions.
- Do Exercise 13.7, and then compare your definition with the
one in Appendix A.
- Instead of doing Exercise 13.10, compare the behavior of the
functions
null and not You should not be
able to find a difference.
- Create a file named
ch13.cl with the following
contents:
----------------------- cut here -----------------------
;;; 13.6
;;; When lisp:<= is called on three or more arguments,
;;; it returns True in case
;;; ???,
;;; and False otherwise.
;;; 13.8
;;; The value of (listp NIL) is
???
;;; 13.9 The function definition is
???
;;; 13.11
;;; The value of (atom 'a) is
???
;;; The value of (atom 5) is
???
;;; The value of (atom '(a)) is
???
;;; The value of (atom '()) is
???
;;; The value of (atom "string") is
???
----------------------- cut here -----------------------
Replace the question marks with your answers, and submit the file.
When you do Exercise 13.9 do not use lisp:consp in your
definition.
- as directed in Exercise 13.12, create the file
util.cl with the definition of the function
elementp in it. Your defpackage form should
look like
(defpackage util
(:export elementp))
and don't forget the in-package form.
Submit this file.
-
Do Exercises 13.13 and 13.14. Exercise 13.14 asks you to modify your
definition of
variablep Instead of changing the
definition that was already in your match.cl file, add
the new definition at the end and comment out the old definition with
the comment brackets #| and |# Your file
will look partially like this:
;;; 12.2
#|
(defun variablep ...
...
)
|#
;;; 13.13
(defun match-element ...
...
)
;;; 13.14
(defun variablep ...
...
)
Submit your revised match.cl
- From now on, comment your function definitions in
match.cl or calculator.cl with the exercise
for which you wrote the definition, so I will know when I review the
file, even though you will be submitting several files with the same
name.
- Notice that you will be submitting three files for Chapter 13.
