5.22.10 Type predicates
These C functions mirror Scheme's type predicate procedures with one
important difference. The C routines return C boolean values (0 and 1)
instead of SCM_BOOL_T
and SCM_BOOL_F
.
The Scheme notational convention of putting a ?
at the end of
predicate procedure names is mirrored in C by placing _p
at the
end of the procedure. For example, (pair? ...)
maps to
gh_pair_p(...)
.
