Hi, all I want the below code to return 2nd & 1st list element from the argument provided to the describe-path function but it returns NIL in their place.
(de describe-path (Path) '(1st text `(cadr Path) 2nd text `(car Path) 3rd text.) ) #run the function (describe-path '(first second third)) -> 1st text NIL 2nd text NIL 3rd text #output has NIL? But below code works fine (setq newList '(1st 2nd 3rd)) '(some text `(car newList) more text `(cadr newList) end text) -> some text 1st more text 2nd end text The describe-path function is a rough translation of the code below (defun describe-path (path) `(there is a ,(second path) going ,(first path) from here -)) (describe-path '(west door garden)) ==> (there is a door going west from here -) http://www.lisperati.com/casting-spels-emacs/html/casting-spels-emacs-16.html Some help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
