See also SRFI 26: Notation for Specializing Parameters without Currying and SRFI 219: Define higher-order lambda.Scheme lacks a flexible way to create and apply curried procedures.
This SRFI describes curried
, a variant of
lambda
that creates true curried procedures which also
behave just like ordinary Scheme procedures. They can be applied to
their arguments one by one, all at once, or anywhere in between,
without any novel syntax. curried
also supports
nullary and variadic procedures, and procedures created with it have
predictable behavior when applied to surplus arguments.
