For a bit of learning-by-doing I was able to easily change Rickard's macro to get a different surface syntax that correctly processes: (define/cti (square2&add x y) contract: (integer? integer? . -> . integer?) tests: [2 3 -> 13] [1 2 -> 5] [-4 4 -> 31] implementation: (+ (expt x 2) (expt y 2))) Further challenges: - allow the "contract:" and "tests:" sections to be blank, but print a warning - add handling for default, keyword and rest parameters Dan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
