VocabularycombinatorsInputsassoc | a sequence of pairs of quotations |
OutputsWord descriptionCreates a quotation that when called, has the same effect as applying
cond to
assoc.
The generated quotation is more efficient than the naive implementation of
cond, though, since it expands into a series of conditionals, and no iteration through
assoc has to be performed.
NotesThis word is used behind the scenes to compile
cond forms efficiently; it can also be called directly, which is useful for meta-programming.
