Hey everyone, I'm a bit new to scheme and I'm looking for some help. Hopefully you guys can assist me. I was given these few questions and I have no clue where to start. So if anyone could answer them they would be of much help. Thanks.

Consider the following functions:

(define get-evens
  (lambda (lst)
    (cond ((null? lst) '())
             ((even? (car lst)) (cons (car lst) (get-evens (cdr lst))))
             (else (get-evens (cdr lst))))))

(define get-odds

  (lambda (lst)

    (cond ((null? lst) '())

             ((odd? (car lst)) (cons (car lst) (get-odds (cdr lst))))

             (else (get-odds (cdr lst))))))

(define get>2
   (lambda (lst)


    (cond ((null? lst) '())
             ((> (car lst) 2) (cons (car lst) (get>2 (cdr lst))))
             (else (get>2 (cdr lst))))))

1. Write another function that accepts a test as one of its arguments, and which can then behave like each of the above functions. Starting with:

 (define extract
   (lambda (test? lst)


2. Use extract to define get-evens, get-odds, and get>2
