3.2 The Representation and Use of Procedures
This section introduces the basics of using and creating Scheme
procedures. It discusses the representation of procedures as just
another kind of Scheme value, and shows how procedure invocation
expressions are constructed. We then explain how lambda is used
to create new procedures, and conclude by presenting the various
shorthand forms of define that can be used instead of writing an
explicit lambda expression.
