Bug in Berkeley FP primitives
I recently discovered a conceptual bug in the code for the append left (apndl)
and append right primitivies. For those who have the FP interpreter, you
should replace the functions apndl$fp and apndr$fp in the file prim_fp.l
by the following:
(defun apndl$fp (x)
(cond ((and (dtpr x) (eq 2 (length x)) (listp (cadr x)))
(cons (car x) (cdr x)))
(t (*throw 'bottom$up '?))))
(defun apndr$fp (x)
(cond ((and (dtpr x) (eq 2 (length x)) (listp (car x)))
(append (car x) (list (cdr x))))
(t (*throw 'bottom$up '?))))
Enjoy,
Scott Baden
