It's a dead program.How to let it alive?

All programs are data. All intepreters are program. All Handware and software,or type checkers etc are interpreter.

I think data conceives the soul,not only the fixed process,but changing vari-language.

The Little Scheme

The CPS control struture

Here below is the method how to change the ordinary subroutine to the continuation passing style Ref..

  • First rule: whenever we see a lambda in the code we want to CPS, we have to add an argument, and then process the body
  • Second rule: “Don’t sweat the small stuff!”

how to add argument?

  • orignial style:
(define rember8
  (lambda (ls)
    (cond
      [(null? ls) '()]
      [(= (car ls) 8) (cdr ls)]
      [else (cons (car ls) (rember8 (cdr ls)))])))
  • incompleted cps style:
(define rember8
  (lambda (ls k)
    (cond
      [(null? ls) '()]
      [(= (car ls) 8) (cdr ls)]
      [else (cons (car ls) (rember8 (cdr ls)))])))

what is the small stuff?

Small stuff is stuff we know will terminate right away. Don’t sweat the small stuff if we know it will be evaluated. Don’t sweat the small stuff if it might be evaluated, but instead pass it to k.

为了更好辨别,我们改为如下形式


(define rember8
  (lambda (ls k)
    (cond
      [(null? ls) (*k* '())]
      [(= (car ls) 8) (*k* (cdr ls))]
      [else (*rember8* (cdr ls) (lambda (x) (*k* (cons (car ls) x))))])))

凡是加上*号的,都代表者continuation的过程。 Why don’t null?, =, car, cdr, and cons count? Because they’re just small stuff, and when we combine small stuff together in small ways, the combination remains small.

Second, all arguments are small stuff. Yep, even the lambda in the
else line, because lambda is *always* small stuff.
  • complete cps style:

(define rember8
  (lambda (ls k)
    (cond
      [(null? ls) (k '())]
      [(= (car ls) 8) (k (cdr ls))]
      [else (rember8 (cdr ls) (lambda (x) (k (cons (car ls) x)))])))

how to evaluate or interpreter a procedre?

ordinary tracing

we will develop a unimplemented language to do give an explanation to it.

Here below is the main language(we can change it ,but now it is not the main cause.)

 (cond 
    ((number? Exp)  Exp)
    ((symbol? Exp) (looking Exp Env))

So now we can use the language below to interpret the form

(eval '(((lambda (x)(lambda (y) (+  x y))) 3) 4) e0)

Good explanation begin(kernal part):



(apply (eval '((lambda (x) (lambda (y) (+ x y))) 3)  e0)
       (Evlist '(4) e0))

(apply (eval '((lambda (x) (lambda (y) (+ x y))) 3)  e0)
       (cons (eval '(4) e0) (evlist '() e0)))

(apply (eval '((lambda (x) (lambda (y) (+ x y))) 3)  e0)
       (cons 4 '()))

(apply (eval '((lambda (x) (lambda (y) (+ x y))) 3)  e0)
       '(4))


(apply (apply (eval '(lambda (x) (lambda (y) (+ x y))  e0)
       '(3) )
      '(4))

(apply (apply '(closure ((x) (lambad (y) (+ x y))) e0) 
       '(3) )
      '(4))

(apply (eval (lambda (y) (+ x y)) e1)
      '(4))

(apply '(closure ((y) (+ x y)) e1)
      '(4))

(eval '(+ x y) e2)

(apply (Eval '+ e2)  (Evlist '(x y) e2))

(apply '(add0101)  '(3 4))   ;add0101 is the assemble executable binary code(speed fast)


(+ 3 4) = 7

Finished~ Good ~ Well done.

cps tracing

Let's trace (rember8  (lambda (x) x))

ls | k

'(1 2 8 3 4 6 7 8 5) | (lambda (x) x) = id
'(2 8 3 4 6 7 8 5)   | (lambda (x) (id (cons 1 x))) = k2
'(8 3 4 6 7 8 5)     | (lambda (x) (k2 (cons 2 x))) = k3

Once we hit the 8, we apply (k (cdr ls)) where k is k3 and ls is '(8 3
4 6 7 8 5)

(k3 '(3 4 6 7 8 5)) = (k2 (cons 2 '(3 4 6 7 8 5)))
(k2 '(2 3 4 6 7 8 5)) = (id (cons 1 '(2 3 4 6 7 8 5)))
(id '(1 2 3 4 6 7 8 5)) = '(1 2 3 4 6 7 8 5)

And we're done.

It is not the end

how to change the procedure above? Leave to you.
