(lambda (params) body) - a procedure in the standard form. When
applied to some values (arguments), substitutes the arguments for
the parameters in the body and evaluates the new expression. For
example, (lambda (x) (+ x 5)) adds 5 to x.
(o f1 f2 f3 ... fn) - a procedure that takes one value and
applies fn to that value, then fn-1 to that result, … then `
f3 to that result, then f2 to that result, and finally f1
to the result, returning the output of f1. For example,
(o add1 square) is a procedure that squares its parameter
and then adds 1.
(cut expression) - a procedure that takes one parameter for
each “hole” <>. For example, (cut (* <> 5)) is a procedure
that divides its parameter by 5.
a. Review the mechanisms for building procedures.
b. If you have not done so already, you may want to open a separate tab or window in your browser for the reading on anonyous procedures.
