Guile provides two kinds of procedures: closures, which are the
result of evaluating a lambda expression, and subrs, which
are C functions packaged up as Scheme objects, to make them available to
Scheme programmers.
(There are actually other sorts of procedures: compiled closures, and continuations; see the source code for details about them.)
