[racket] Three questions related DrRacket
Thank you for the help. I just found expression in between define does not
always cause this error. For example:
(define (test x)
(add1 x)
(define (tst x)
(cond
[(= x 1) (add1 x)]
[else
(+ x 2)]))
(add1 x)
)
The problem is that it only executes the last expression. But in
http://pre.racket-lang.org/docs/html/guide/syntax-overview.html
it showed a code
(define<http://pre.racket-lang.org/docs/html/reference/define.html#(form._((lib._racket/private/base..rkt)._define))>
(bake flavor)
(printf<http://pre.racket-lang.org/docs/html/reference/Writing.html#(def._((quote._~23~25kernel)._printf))>
"pre-heating oven...\n")
(string-append<http://pre.racket-lang.org/docs/html/reference/strings.html#(def._((quote._~23~25kernel)._string-append))>
flavor " pie"))
Why can it execute two expressions there?
In my question
(define (p x)
(+ x 10)
(* x 10)
)
It seems it only executes (* x 10)
