Actually, I just finished porting SRFI-43 to PLT and now
it is available at http://webhost.5ewy.com/kellyjm/SRFI-43.zip
During the porting, I find several bugs in both the document
and reference implementation of SRFI-43. The document in
http://webhost.5ewy.com/kellyjm/SRFI-43.zip is bug-fixed
version by me. The details are:
Besides (vector-fold (lambda (index counter n) , the two
bugs in the document is:
(vector-fold-right (lambda (index elt tail) (cons elt tail))
should be
(vector-fold-right (lambda (index tail elt) (cons elt tail))
and
(let ((count 0))
(vector-map (lambda (ignored-index ignored-elt)
(set! count (+ count 1))
count)))
'#(a b)
should be
(let ((count 0))
(vector-map (lambda (ignored-index ignored-elt)
(set! count (+ count 1))
count)
'#(a b)))
And in the reference implementation:
(define (vector-reverse-copy!
...
(between? sstart (+ tstart (- send sstart))
send)
...
should be
(between? tstart sstart (+ tstart (- send sstart)))
If run the reference implementation, the example
(vector-map (lambda (i x) (* x x))
(vector-unfold (lambda (i x) (values x (+ x 1))) 4 1))
returns
#(1 4 9 <unspecified>)
instead of
#(1 4 9 16)
And the second half of the document, there are no examples,
which is totally different from the first half.
(There may be more bugs in the reference implementation because
after finding so many bugs, I distrust it and write my own code
without reading it carefully. )
Best regards,
