Outdated egg!

This is an egg for CHICKEN 3, the unsupported old release. You're almost certainly looking for the CHICKEN 4 version of this egg, if it exists.

If it does not exist, there may be equivalent functionality provided by another egg; have a look at the egg index. Otherwise, please consider porting this egg to the current version of CHICKEN.

This is version 1.2 of the vector-lib extension library for Chicken Scheme.

Description

Reference implementation of SRFI-43: Vector library

Documentation

See the SRFI-43 document for full documentation on the reference implementation.

Also, the following two procedures take START and END arguments which are not documented in the SRFI.

'''procedure:''' (list->vector LIST [START END])

Produce a vector containing the elements in LIST, which must be a proper list, between START, whose default is 0, and END, whose default is the length of LIST. It is suggested that if the length of LIST is known in advance, the START and END arguments be passed, so that list->vector need not call length itself.

'''procedure:''' (reverse-list->vector LIST [START END])

Produces the same output as list->vector, but in reverse order.
