- AnimalMuppet 7y agoThere are more things in the computer programming universe than are dreamed of in your philosophy. (With apologies to William Shakespeare...)
- vincent-toups 7y agoThat is why we have syntax-case.
- AnimalMuppet 7y agoNon sequitur? (That is, your comment does not seem to follow whatsoever from mine.)
- vincent-toups 7y agoSuppose there are more things in the programming universe than are strictly represented in (say, R5RS) Scheme. Because Scheme has things like continuations and syntax-transformations, we can put them into the language.
