Why we can't use (values) like this? - racket

(define (avg . l)
(/ (apply + l) (length l)))
(define (delist ls)
(apply values ls))
(avg (delist '(1 2 3))) ;;error
(avg 1 2 3) ;; return 2
without call-with-values, can I bind the value returned by values to each parameter in other ways?

can I bind the value returned by values to each parameter in other ways?
Here are most of the ways I know of to bind variables to returned values in Racket:
#lang racket/base
(define (list->values lst) (apply values lst))
(define-values (a b c) (list->values '(1 2 3)))
(displayln (+ a b c))
(let-values ([(d e f) (list->values '(4 5 6))])
(displayln (+ d e f)))
(require racket/match)
(match/values (list->values '(7 8 9))
([x y z] (displayln (+ x y z))))
(require srfi/8)
(receive (i j k) (list->values '(10 11 12)) (displayln (+ i j k)))
(displayln (call-with-values (lambda () (list->values '(13 14 15))) +))

typed/racket + racket interoperability

How can I use typed Racket for some functions in my codebase, but use (untyped) Racket for others? When I define a function in Racket but import it into a typed Racket context, it seems to be changing the behavior of the function (functions described below).
As it is now, the files do typecheck, but don't pass my tests in p11typedtest.rkt -- however, my files do successfully pass my tests if I either (A) switch p11typed.rkt to regular Racket or (B) copy the pack function into p11typed.rkt and provide its type annotation.
;; p09.rkt
#lang racket
(provide pack)
;; packs consecutive duplicates within a list into sublists
(define (pack lst)
(for/foldr ([acc '()]) ([x lst])
(match acc
[(cons (cons y ys) zs) #:when (equal? x y)
(list* (list* x y ys) zs)]
[_ (list* (list x) acc)]
)))

;; uncomment to print the result of pack

How to make fibonacci sequence in racket using abstract list functions

I am trying to write a racket program that computes the sum of the first n terms in a fibonacci sequence without using recursion, and only using abstract list functions (so map, builld-list, foldr, foldl). I can use helper functions.
I'm stuck on how to make a list of the fibonacci numbers without using recursion. I thought I could use a lambda function:
(lambda (lst) (+ (list-ref lst (- (length lst) 1)) (list-ref lst (- (length lst 2)))))
But I am not sure how to generate the input list/how to add this to a function.
Once I have a fibonacci sequence I know I can just use (foldl + (car lst) (cdr lst)) to find the sum.
Could anyone explain to me how to make the fibonacci sequence/give me a hint?
; This is how I figure out
#|
(1 2 3 4 (0 1))
-> (1 2 3 (1 1))
-> (1 2 (1 2))
-> (1 (2 3))
-> (3 5)
|#
(define (fib n)
(cond
[(= n 0) 0]
[(= n 1) 1]
[(> n 1)
(second
(foldr (λ (no-use ls) (list (second ls) (+ (first ls) (second ls))))
'(0 1)
(build-list (- n 1) (λ (x) x))))]))
(fib 10)
(build-list 10 fib)
Upgrade version 2
(define (fib-v2 n)
(first
(foldr (λ (no-use ls) (list (second ls) (+ (first ls) (second ls))))
'(0 1)
(build-list n (λ (x) x)))))
(build-list 10 fib-v2)
fib-seq produces a list of first n fibonacci numbers and fib-sum produces the sum of first n fibonacci numbers.
; Number -> [List-of Number]
(define (fib-seq n)
(cond [(= n 0) '()]
[(= n 1) '(0)]
[else (reverse
(for/fold ([lon '(1 0)]) ([_ (in-range (- n 2))])
(cons (apply + (take lon 2)) lon)))]))
; Number -> Number
(define (fib-sum n)
(if (= n 0) 0 (add1 (apply + (take (fib-seq n) (sub1 n))))))
Note: fib-sum is equivalent to the following recursive versions:
(define (fib0 n)
(if (< n 2) n (+ (fib0 (- n 1)) (fib0 (- n 2)))))
(define (fib1 n)
(let loop ((cnt 0) (a 0) (b 1))
(if (= n cnt) a (loop (+ cnt 1) b (+ a b)))))
(define (fib2 n (a 0) (b 1))
(if (= n 0) 0 (if (< n 2) 1 (+ a (fib2 (- n 1) b (+ a b))))))
Once I have a fibonacci sequence I know I can just use (foldl + (car lst) (cdr lst)) to find the sum.
Note that you don't have to generate an intermediate sequence to find the sum. Consider the (fast) matrix exponentiation solution:
(require math/matrix)
(define (fib3 n)
(matrix-ref (matrix-expt (matrix ([1 1] [1 0])) n) 1 0))
Testing:
(require rackunit)
(check-true
(let* ([l (build-list 20 identity)]
[fl (list fib0 fib1 fib2 fib3 fib-sum)]
[ll (make-list (length fl) l)])
(andmap (λ (x) (equal? (map fib0 l) x))
(map (λ (x y) (map x y)) fl ll))))

Sort elements in list [duplicate]

I have this homework in LISP where I need to sort out atoms and then sublists from a list. I'm sure this is supposed to be easy task but as I'm not much of a programmer then this is really taking quite a while for me to understand.
I have this list of numbers:
(5 -1 (2 6 1) (8 7 -3) (0 (9 4)) -6)
And if I understand correctly my task then I should get something like this:
(5 -1 -6 (2 6 1) (8 7 -3) (0 (9 4)))
So far all I found out is how to count atoms and/or sublists but I don't need that.
(DEFUN ATOMNUMBER (L) (COND ((NULL L) 0)
((ATOM (CAR L)) (+ 1 (ATOMNUMBER (CDR L))))
(T (ATOMNUMBER (CDR L))) ))
Also that function should work correctly even when there are only sublists, only atoms or just empty list.
Maybe someone can give me any examples?
Thanks in advance!
There are several possible approaches in Common Lisp:
use REMOVE-IF to remove the unwanted items. (Alternatively use REMOVE-IF-NOT to keep the wanted items.) You'll need two lists. Append them.
use DOLIST and iterate over the list, collect the items into two lists and append them
write a recursive procedure where you need to keep two result lists.
it should also be possible to use SORT with a special sort predicate.
Example:
> (sort '(1 (2 6 1) 4 (8 7 -3) 4 1 (0 (9 4)) -6 10 1)
(lambda (a b)
(atom a)))
(1 10 -6 1 4 4 1 (2 6 1) (8 7 -3) (0 (9 4)))
As stable version:
(stable-sort '(1 (2 6 1) 4 (8 7 -3) 4 1 (0 (9 4)) -6 10 1)
(lambda (a b)
(and (atom a)
(not (atom b)))))
(1 4 4 1 -6 10 1 (2 6 1) (8 7 -3) (0 (9 4)))
I am more used to Scheme but here's a solution that works in Lisp:
(defun f (lst)
(labels
((loop (lst atoms lists)
(cond
((null lst)
(append (reverse atoms) (reverse lists)))
((atom (car lst))
(loop (cdr lst) (cons (car lst) atoms) lists))
(T
(loop (cdr lst) atoms (cons (car lst) lists))))))
(loop lst '() '())))
(f '(5 -1 (2 6 1) (8 7 -3) (0 (9 4)) -6))
Basically you iterate over the list, and each element is either appended to the atoms list or the lists lists. In the end you join both to get your result.
EDIT
The remove-if version is way shorter, of course:
(let ((l '(5 -1 (2 6 1) (8 7 -3) (0 (9 4)) -6)))
(append
(remove-if-not #'atom l)
(remove-if #'atom l)))
Just in case you will want to exercise more, and you will find that the examples provided here are not enough :P
(defun sort-atoms-first-recursive (x &optional y)
(cond
((null x) y)
((consp (car x))
(sort-atoms-first-recursive (cdr x) (cons (car x) y)))
(t (cons (car x) (sort-atoms-first-recursive (cdr x) y)))))
(defun sort-atoms-first-loop (x)
(do ((a x (cdr a))
(b) (c) (d) (e))
(nil)
(if (consp (car a))
(if b (setf (cdr b) a b (cdr b)) (setf b a d a))
(if c (setf (cdr c) a c (cdr c)) (setf c a e a)))
(when (null (cdr a))
(cond
((null d) (return e))
((null c) (return d))
(t (setf (cdr b) nil (cdr c) d) (return e))))))
(sort-atoms-first-recursive '(5 -1 (2 6 1) (8 7 -3) (0 (9 4)) -6))
(sort-atoms-first-loop '(5 -1 (2 6 1) (8 7 -3) (0 (9 4)) -6))
The second one is destructive (but doesn't create any new conses).
Here's an iterative code, constructing its output in a top-down manner (the comment is in Haskell syntax):
;atomsFirst xs = separate xs id id where
; separate [] f g = f (g [])
; separate (x:xs) f g
; | atom x = separate xs (f.(x:)) g
; | True = separate xs f (g.(x:))
(defmacro app (l v)
`(progn (rplacd ,l (list ,v)) (setq ,l (cdr ,l))))
(defun atoms-first (xs)
(let* ((f (list nil)) (g (list nil)) (p f) (q g))
(dolist (x xs)
(if (atom x) (app p x) (app q x)))
(rplacd p (cdr g))
(cdr f)))
The two intermediate lists that are being constructed in a top-down manner are maintained as open-ended lists (i.e. with explicit ending pointer), essentially following the difference-lists paradigm.
You can do this recursive way:
(defun f (lst)
(cond
((null lst) nil)
((atom (car lst))
(append (list (car lst)) (f (cdr lst))))
(T
(append (f (cdr lst)) (list (f (car lst))))
)
)
)
(step (f '(5 -1 (2 6 1) (8 7 -3) (0 (9 4)) -6)))
Output:
step 1 --> (F '(5 -1 (2 6 1) (8 7 -3) ...))
step 1 ==> value: (5 -1 -6 (0 (9 4)) (8 7 -3) (2 6 1))

Recursing Through Nested List LISP

How would I recurse through nested lists?
For example, given: '((A 1 2) (B 3 4))
How would I add 2 to the second element in each nested sublist?
(defun get-p0 (points)
(loop for x from 0 to
(- (list-length points) 1) do
(+ 2 (cadr (nth x points)))
)
)
I'm not really sure why (get-p0 '((A 1 2) (B 3 4))) returns NIL.
I'd go with something like this:
(loop for (letter x y) in '((A 1 2) (B 3 4))
collect (list letter (+ 2 x) y))
The reason: it's shorter and you don't measure the length of the list in order to iterate over it (why would you do that?)
Since you ask for a recursive solution:
(defun get-p0 (lst &optional (n 0))
(if (null lst)
nil
(let ((elt1 (first lst)) (eltn (cdr lst)))
(if (listp elt1)
(cons (get-p0 elt1) (get-p0 eltn))
(cons (if (= n 1) (+ elt1 2) elt1) (get-p0 eltn (+ n 1)))))))
so
? (get-p0 '((A 1 2) (B 3 4)))
((A 3 2) (B 5 4))
and it recurses further down if necessary:
? (get-p0 '((A 0 2) ((B -4 4) (C 10 4))))
((A 2 2) ((B -2 4) (C 12 4)))
The way you put it, you can consider the problem as a basic recursion pattern: you go through a list using recursion or iteration (mapcar, reduce, etc.; dolist, loop, etc.) and apply a function to its entries. Here is a functional solution:
(defun get-p0 (points)
(mapcar #'add-2 points))
where the auxiliary function can be defined as follows:
(defun add-2 (lst)
"Add 2 to the 2nd item"
(let ((res '()))
(do ((l lst (cdr l))
(i 1 (1+ i)))
((null l) (nreverse res))
(push (if (= 2 i)
(+ 2 (car l))
(car l))
res))))
As written your 'loop' use does not return anything; thus NIL is returned. As is your code is simply iterating over x and computing something; that something isn't stored anywhere.
So, how to get your desired result? Assuming you are willing to modify each point in points, this should work:
(defun get-p0 (points)
(loop for x from 0 to (- (list-length points) 1) do
(let ((point (nth x points)))
(setf (cadr point) (+ 2 (cadr point)))))
points)
