Re: dolist on main-args problem

Thx Ralph!! Much obliged ...

I now see how I confused the "break expression" with "sub list" expression!

Learning any flavour of LISP as been such a challenge for me! But at my age, the struggle might be an excellent way to keep the "leetle grey cells" flashing and sparking! LOL

Re: dolist on main-args problem

So how does this reconcile with the code snippet

Code: Select all

(dolist (x (2 (main-args)))
that you kindly volunteered in your previous post - which works like a charm?

Re: dolist on main-args problem

Thanks for the reply Ron!

The manual says:
dolist
syntax: (dolist (sym list|array [exp-break]) body)

(dolist (x '(a b c d e f g) (= x 'e)) ; prints: abcd
(print x))
The optional "exp break" appeared to follow all the other arguments!

How am I interpreting the manual incorrectly?

Re: set - setf - setq woes

@s.v. Thanks! I will read your reply carefully and as an exercise, I will fabricate some examples to prove your points.

I have been using (set 'a-symbol blah blah) as an equivalent to (setq a-symbol blah blah). Maybe that was a bad assumption!

Thx for the input ...

dolist on main-args problem

I have this test code: #!c:\bin\newlisp\newlisp.exe (println (main-args 2)) ;; works OK (dolist (x (main-args)) (println $idx ":" x)) (exit) The above code works fine! BUT - when I ask dolist to use a "break expression", I'm making it choke and I don't know why! So if I do: (dolist (x (main-args 2))...

Re: set - setf - setq woes

Hmm, did you have the variable quoted maybe? Are you asking if I used setf/setq and quoted the symbol as well? I'm not sure ... :/ Regardless of how I screwed up though (and I did ) , I'm looking for extra simple directions as to when to use 'set' , 'setf' and 'setq' so that I won't go down that ro...

I'm getting back to playing with newLISP! - Again!! :) The following code broke when I used setf or setq! Why is that? What is the subtle diffs between the three? I want to grok this ASAP - so that I don't spin my wheel ever again with setting a symbol, etc. TIA (set 'vowels '("a", "e", "i", "o", "u...

Testing a symbol against a string ***SOLVED***

I've lost a lot of the little LISP-ishness that I managed to acquire over the years. Use it or loose it .... Anyway, I have a variable/symbol -- let's say: (set 'name "some_name") Down the road, I want to test te symbol name to see if it is equal to - say "dukester". If it is, I want to execute a fu...

Like I indicated up the thread, CGI scripts run with zero problems using other language interpreters!! So there is NO http.conf issue as far as I can determine.

Thanks a bunch for going the extra mile with such a great (but disappointing) reply!

I didn't know why, but I had a hunch that there was something haywire somewhere. I might just have to revert back to an older version of newLISP like you. Thanks again for the confirmation!!

Thanks for the porting tips, and fleshing out some of the diffs between the two languages. It all helps - and it's all good!! Much obliged!! I'm playing with gambit-c as well, as I'm porting.
