(evlis U:any-list): any-list                                                                                            expr
Evlis evaluates each element of U The list of results is returned.
 
(idapply FN:id U:any-list): any                                                                                  expr
Applies the function referenced by FN to the argument list U. An equivalent
form would be (apply FN U). The use of idapply is more efficient. If FN is
not an id it is an error and the message
 
is printed.
(codeapply FN:code-pointer U:any-list): any                                                            expr
The  body  of  compiled  function  referenced  by  FN  is  executed  with
arguments in U.
 
(codeevalapply FN:code-pointer U:any-list): any                                                     expr
(codeevalapply  FN  U)  is  essentially  (codeapply  FN  (evlis  U)).  The
difference between the two is that the first is more efficient than the second.
 
(evprogn U:form-list): any                                                                                          expr
The  forms  in  U  are  evaluated  in  a  left  to  right  order.  The  value  of  the
last is returned. This function is used in situations where an application of
progn is implied. For example, the definition of many functions consists of
a sequence of expressions. Each expression is evaluated and the value of the
last is returned, without having to wrap the definition inside a progn.
