Next: Identifiers, Previous: Whitespace, Up: Lexical Conventions
All whitespace characters are delimiters. In addition, the following characters act as delimiters:
( ) ; " ' ` |
Finally, these next characters act as delimiters, despite the fact that Scheme does not define any special meaning for them:
[ ] { }
For example, if the value of the variable name
is
"max"
:
(list"Hi"name(+ 1 2)) => ("Hi" "max" 3)
