Documentation

data Rebind p1 p2

Rebind p1 p2 is a pattern that binds the names of p1 and p2, and additionally brings the names of p1 into scope over p2.

This may be used, for example, to faithfully represent Scheme's let* binding form, defined by:

 (let* () body) ≙ body
 (let* ([v1, e1] binds ...) body) ≙ (let ([v1, e1]) (let* (binds ...) body))

using the following AST:

type Var = Name Expr
data Lets = EmptyLs
          | ConsLs (Rebind (Var, Embed Expr) Lets)
data Expr = ...
          | LetStar (Bind Lets Expr)
          | ...
