25;;; {Optional Arguments}
26;;;
27;;; The C interface for creating Guile procedures has a very handy
28;;; "optional argument" feature. This module attempts to provide
29;;; similar functionality for procedures defined in Scheme with
30;;; a convenient and attractive syntax.
31;;;
32;;; exported macros are:
08394899
MS
33;;; let-optional
34;;; let-optional*
35;;; let-keywords
36;;; let-keywords*
37;;; lambda*
38;;; define*
afab82bc 39;;; define*-public
08394899
MS
40;;; defmacro*
41;;; defmacro*-public
42;;;
43;;;
44;;; Summary of the lambda* extended parameter list syntax (brackets
45;;; are used to indicate grouping only):
46;;;
dfb49627 47;;; ext-param-list ::= [identifier]* [#:optional [ext-var-decl]+]?
afab82bc 48;;; [#:key [ext-var-decl]+ [#:allow-other-keys]?]?
dfb49627 49;;; [[#:rest identifier]|[. identifier]]?
08394899 50;;;
afab82bc 51;;; ext-var-decl ::= identifier | ( identifier expression )
08394899
MS
52;;;
53;;; The characters `*', `+' and `?' are not to be taken literally; they
54;;; mean respectively, zero or more occurences, one or more occurences,
55;;; and one or zero occurences.

74;; These two macros give you an optional argument interface that is
75;; very "Schemey" and introduces no fancy syntax. They are compatible
76;; with the scsh macros of the same name, but are slightly
08394899
MS
77;; extended. Each of binding may be of one of the forms <var> or
78;; (<var> <default-value>). rest-arg should be the rest-argument of
79;; the procedures these are used from. The items in rest-arg are
80;; sequentially bound to the variable namess are given. When rest-arg
81;; runs out, the remaining vars are bound either to the default values
296ff5e7 82;; or to `#f' if no default value was specified. rest-arg remains
08394899
MS
83;; bound to whatever may have been left of rest-arg.

96;; macros used to bind keyword arguments
97;;
98;; These macros pick out keyword arguments from rest-arg, but do not
99;; modify it. This is consistent at least with Common Lisp, which
100;; duplicates keyword args in the rest arg. More explanation of what
101;; keyword arguments in a lambda list look like can be found below in
102;; the documentation for lambda*. Bindings can have the same form as
afab82bc 103;; for let-optional. If allow-other-keys? is false, an error will be
08394899
MS
104;; thrown if anything that looks like a keyword argument but does not
105;; match a known keyword parameter will result in an error.

afab82bc 188;;
08394899
MS
189;; lambda* creates a procedure that takes optional arguments. These
190;; are specified by putting them inside brackets at the end of the
191;; paramater list, but before any dotted rest argument. For example,
dfb49627 192;; (lambda* (a b #:optional c d . e) '())
08394899
MS
193;; creates a procedure with fixed arguments a and b, optional arguments c
194;; and d, and rest argument e. If the optional arguments are omitted
296ff5e7 195;; in a call, the variables for them are bound to `#f'.
08394899
MS
196;;
197;; lambda* can also take keyword arguments. For example, a procedure
198;; defined like this:
dfb49627 199;; (lambda* (#:key xyzzy larch) '())
08394899
MS
200;; can be called with any of the argument lists (#:xyzzy 11)
201;; (#:larch 13) (#:larch 42 #:xyzzy 19) (). Whichever arguments
202;; are given as keywords are bound to values.
203;;
204;; Optional and keyword arguments can also be given default values
205;; which they take on when they are not present in a call, by giving a
206;; two-item list in place of an optional argument, for example in:
afab82bc 207;; (lambda* (foo #:optional (bar 42) #:key (baz 73)) (list foo bar baz))
08394899
MS
208;; foo is a fixed argument, bar is an optional argument with default
209;; value 42, and baz is a keyword argument with default value 73.
210;; Default value expressions are not evaluated unless they are needed
afab82bc 211;; and until the procedure is called.
08394899
MS
212;;
213;; lambda* now supports two more special parameter list keywords.
214;;
215;; lambda*-defined procedures now throw an error by default if a
216;; keyword other than one of those specified is found in the actual
dfb49627 217;; passed arguments. However, specifying #:allow-other-keys
b4ad0dda 218;; immediately after the keyword argument declarations restores the
08394899
MS
219;; previous behavior of ignoring unknown keywords. lambda* also now
220;; guarantees that if the same keyword is passed more than once, the
221;; last one passed is the one that takes effect. For example,
dfb49627 222;; ((lambda* (#:key (heads 0) (tails 0)) (display (list heads tails)))
08394899
MS
223;; #:heads 37 #:tails 42 #:heads 99)
224;; would result in (99 47) being displayed.
225;;
dfb49627
MV
226;; #:rest is also now provided as a synonym for the dotted syntax rest
227;; argument. The argument lists (a . b) and (a #:rest b) are equivalent in
08394899
MS
228;; all respects to lambda*. This is provided for more similarity to DSSSL,
229;; MIT-Scheme and Kawa among others, as well as for refugees from other
230;; Lisp dialects.
