Abstract: . This article presents a convenient and efficient procedural interface that allows the definition and use of procedures with optional arguments and indefinite numbers of arguments without resorting to the use of a language-dependent data structure in which to store the arguments. This interface solves many of the problems inherent in the use of lists in Lisp and Scheme to store indefinite numbers of arguments. Simple recursion can be used to consume such arguments without the complexity... (Update)

.... The compiler processes R 4 RS Scheme [8] and directly supports multiple return values [1] and a variable arity procedure interface [11]. As defined in Section 2, the analysis can process only closed programs, i.e. programs with no free variables other than recognized...
...can be performed out of line to reduce code size. Our implementation supports a multiple arity procedure call interface with case lambda [4, 12]. A case lambda expression takes the following form: case lambda (idspec body ) Each clause of a case lambda expression...
