Whither newLISP? / A pair of lists
April 28, 2013, 09:21:06 PM
I am writing a tutorial on developing a Scheme compiler and one of the data structures I am using is a pair of lists, where the car of the pair is a list of the symbols and the cdr of the pair is a list of their values.



For example, an a-list of the data might be '((a . 10) (b . 20) (c . 30))

And the p-list version would be '((a 10) (b 20) (c 30))

My data structure would be '((a b c) 10 20 30)



I am wondering if there is a common name for such a data structure (along the lines of a-list and p-list). If not, I would be open to suggestions on how I should refer to it.

newLISP newS / LispNYC holding Lisp project contest
April 09, 2013, 05:18:21 AM
LispNYC is holding a contest for programmers, artists, and creators who use or create things with Lisp.



It is open to all Lisp-type programming languages: Common Lisp, Scheme, Clojure, and "any recognized dialect of Lisp". I would assume that newLISP qualifies. Registration starts on June 1st.
