Tonight I went through some problems involving set-car! and set-cdr!. Other than the homework problems, I have yet hear of folks recommending using these functions. I re-read this article: http://blog.plt-scheme.org/2007/11/getting-rid-of-set-car-and-set-cdr.html to get a sense of where they fit today. Historically, though, they must have been there for some really good reason? What was that reason?
