Re: case source code

[Damien Mattei]

sorry if my question was unclear , i search the source code if it exist in
scheme with macro (or not) but not in C for the 'case function (procedure
or macro) , i want to modify the code to allow inner definitions the way i
do it for example with 'do:

;; with a definition inside only the new version works:
;; (do ((i 1 (1+ i))
;;      (p 3 (* 3 p)))
;;     ((> i 4)
;;      p)
;;   (define x 7)
;;   (set! p (+ p i x)))
;; $3 = 1257

(define-syntax do

  (syntax-rules ()

    ((do ((var init step ...) ...)

         (test expr ...)

         command ...)

     (letrec

       ((loop

         (lambda (var ...)

           (if test

               ;;(begin
      (let ()

                 #f ; avoid empty begin

                 expr ...)

               ;;(begin
      (let ()

                 command

                 ...

                 (loop (do "step" var step ...)

                       ...))))))

       (loop init ...)))

    ((do "step" x)

     x)

    ((do "step" x y)

     y)))

Damien
