Windows's environment path to include the path to executable I want to run,

find-executable-path on that executable, it returns #f. Even when I move

Hi Brian
r >= 0 && r <= 4 && c >= 0 && c <= r
implies
0 <= c <= r <= 4
Or using prefix and the variable-arity of <=:
(define (is-pos r c)
(<= 0 c r 4))
which I think works well for clarity, concision, and efficiency.

I agree that the syntax can be noisy for simple cases.
The design rationale for having the header is to allow optional,

Why is it a name per type? That seems wrong, since a function with docstring
struct should have the object-name of the function, or something refined. The
struct itself could be used for potentially every function a user writes,
rendering object-name overly vague.

This doesn't count as "soon", but I finally cleaned up my patch for
this: https://github.com/plt/racket/pull/729
It's not as general as what Alexander envisioned, so it should
probably be generalized.

Complementary to the suggestions that Matthias and Jens Axel made, also
remember that Racket has a very different evaluation model than Haskell.
Consider reworking the use of the "and" form and everything within it:
instead, test "r" and "c" for "integer?", and then use "<=" and ">=" to

Hi Brian,
I think you want define/match.
(define/match (is-pos l)
[((list r c)) (and (member r (range 0 4))
(member c (range 0 r)))])
(is-pos '(2 5)) ; => #f
(is-pos '(2 1)) ; => '(1)

I'm porting more Haskell code to Racket as a learning exercise. When I got to
this line:
isPos (r,c) = elem r [0..4] && elem c [0..r]
I first wrote this:
(define (is-pos r c) (and (member r (lgen 0 4))

where lgen is:
