[racket-dev] `cond' / `when' / `unless' / etc bodies
I like mixing definitions and expressions -- maybe the bodies of
`cond' etc should also allow it?
The only downside I see is the possible confusion in somthing like
(define (foo x)
(when (even? x) (define x (add1 x)) (printf "increment\n"))
x)
;; why isn't this working?
but that seems like a minor point (without that `printf' you'd still
get a syntax error; and the same confusion can already happen with
`let' etc).
