<div dir="ltr"><div>Yi,<br><br></div>Most #lang languages implicitly create a module from the contents of the file. #lang racket/load, on the other hand, runs the contents of the file as top-level terms outside of any module. The provide form is not legal at the top level, as it is meaningless -- there's no module to provide things from. You need to either switch back to #lang racket or remove the provide, depending on what you're trying to accomplish.<br> </div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div>Carl Eastlund</div> <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Aug 4, 2013 at 4:12 AM, Yi Dai <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:plmday@gmail.com" target="_blank">plmday@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> <div dir="ltr"><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">Hi,</span><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"> <div>I have the following code in a file named `foo.rkt`:</div><div><br></div><div>```</div><div>#lang racket/load</div><div><br></div><div>(provide foo)</div><div><br></div><div>(define foo 'bar)</div><div>```</div> <div> <br></div><div>When trying to run the code, I got the following confusing error:</div><div><br></div><div>> `provide`: not at module level in: `(provide foo)`</div><div><br></div><div>What does this mean?
