Hi all,

i'm looking for the functions FUNCALL and GETDEF.

Are there equivalent functions in newLisp?

Sorry for dumb question...i'm a newbie.

I think there is no need to 'funcall' in newLisp, because variable name space and function name space are not separated as in Common Lisp, and maybe for other reasons, but I may be mistaken...



As for 'getdef', I can't give an answer because i don't know what is the use of this function in CL. Sorry !

Hi newbert,

I have found these functions in an old article on Lisp (to define a function it use DE, maybe Portable Standard Lisp).

GETDEF gets the definition of a function.

Thanks for infos.

A Function in newLISP is not a "closure", so we can examine its content typing its name without parentheses :
Code Select

> (define (double x) (+ x x))
(lambda (x) (+ x x))
> double
(lambda (x) (+ x x))

Thank you for info about GETDEF
