[Jscheme-user] Minor nuisance/inconsistency

[Robert J. B. <ru...@bb...>]

Folks,
I  would expect that (cadr x) and (car (cdr x)) would behave identically 
in all circumstances. Yet I find that car and cdr behave like Common 
Lisp and return '() when given '() as an argument (I like this, 
personnaly) and cadr throws an exception when handed '();

I think the inconsistency is annoying -- I really prefer not to have 
(car (cdr x)) in my code.

Any recommendations?
