10 Supported by default, no module required.
14 A full toolbox of list processing procedures. (use-modules (srfi
15 srfi-1)) will make them available for use.
19 (use-modules (srfi srfi-2)) to make and-let* available.
21 SRFI-4: Homogeneous numeric vector datatypes
23 SRFI-6: open-input-string, open-output-string and get-output-string
25 (use-modules (srfi srfi-6)) to make these available. (Currently,
26 these procedures are available without using the module, but the
27 procedures might be factored out of the core library in the
32 (use-modules (srfi srfi-8)) to make receive available.
34 SRFI-9: define-record-type
36 A mechanism for defining record types. (use-modules (srfi srfi-9))
37 makes this syntactic form available.
41 The hash-comma reader extension. (use-modules (srfi srfi-10))
42 activates the extension.
44 SRFI-11: let-values and let-values*
46 Syntactic extensions for handling multiple values. (use-modules
47 (srfi srfi-11)) makes these syntactic forms available.
49 SRFI-13: string library
51 A lot of (more or less) useful string processing procedures.
52 (use-modules (srfi srfi-13)) loads the procedures.
54 SRFI-14: character-set library
56 Character-set library. (use-modules (srfi srfi-14)) loads the
57 procedures and standard variables.
61 Syntactic form which permits writing functions acting different
62 according to the number of arguments passed. (use-modules (srfi
63 srfi-16)) makes this syntactic form available.
65 SRFI-17: Generalized set!
67 Guile supports generalized set! by default, but this module makes it
68 fully compliant to the SRFI. (use-modules (srfi srfi-17)) loads the
71 SRFI-19: Time Data Types and Procedures
73 A lot of data types and procedures for dealing with times and
74 dates. (use-modules (srfi srfi-19)) loads the procedures.
76 SRFI-23: Error reporting mechanism
78 Guile fully supports this SRFI. No need to load any module.
80 SRFI-26: Notation for Specializing Parameters without Currying
84 SRFI-31: A special form for recursive evaluation
88 SRFI-34: Exception Handling for Programs
90 Exports: with-exception-handler, raise.
91 Exports syntax: guard.
93 SRFI-39: Parameter objects
95 Exports: make-parameter, with-parameters*.
96 Exports syntax: parameterize.
