如果我理解正確的話,你正在尋找一個C函數的靜態變量的等價物。這在Scheme中稱爲closure。
這裏是你喂號碼功能的示例實現,並且將始終返回當前最大:
(define maxfinder
(let ((max #f)) ; "static" variable, initialized to False
(lambda (n) ; the function that is defined
(when (or (not max) (< max n)) ; if no max yet, or new value > max
(set! max n)) ; then set max to new value
max))) ; in any case, return the current max
然後
> (maxfinder 1)
1
> (maxfinder 10)
10
> (maxfinder 5)
10
> (maxfinder 2)
10
> (maxfinder 100)
100
所以這將工作,但沒有提供任何機制來在不同的上下文中重用該功能。下面更廣義的版本實例化一個新功能在每次調用:
(define (maxfinder)
(let ((max #f)) ; "static" variable, initialized to False
(lambda (n) ; the function that is returned
(when (or (not max) (< max n)) ; if no max yet, or new value > max
(set! max n)) ; then set max to new value
max))) ; in any case, return the current max
使用這樣的:
> (define max1 (maxfinder)) ; instantiate a new maxfinder
> (max1 1)
1
> (max1 10)
10
> (max1 5)
10
> (max1 2)
10
> (max1 100)
100
> (define max2 (maxfinder)) ; instantiate a new maxfinder
> (max2 5)
