<h4>Lists</h4>
|
||||
<div>
|
||||
A <i>list</i> is a simple cons-style list with a head and a tail.
|
||||
The head of a <i>list</i> is an element,
|
||||
and the tail is either another <i>list</i> or <b>BOOST_PP_NIL</b>.
|
||||
For example,
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<div class="code">
|
||||
(<i>a</i>, (<i>b</i>, (<i>c</i>, <b>BOOST_PP_NIL</b>)))
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<div>
|
||||
...is a <i>list</i> of <i>3</i> elements--<i>a</i>, <i>b</i>, and <i>c</i>.
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<div>
|
||||
This allows macro parameters to be variable in size and allows data states to change
|
||||
size without the user explicitly keeping track of the size independently.
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<div>
|
||||
Elements of a <i>list</i> can be extracted with
|
||||
<b>BOOST_PP_LIST_FIRST</b> and <b>BOOST_PP_LIST_REST</b>.

<h4>Lists</h4>
|
||||
<div> A <i>list</i> is a simple cons-style list with a head and a
|
||||
tail. The head of a <i>list</i> is an element, and the tail is
|
||||
either another <i>list</i> or <b>BOOST_PP_NIL</b>. For example, </div>

<div> ...is a <i>list</i> of <i>3</i> elements--<i>a</i>, <i>b</i>, and <i>c</i>.

</div>
|

<div> This allows macro parameters to be variable in size and allows data
|

states to change size without the user explicitly keeping track of the

A list can be empty and therefore have a size of 0. An empty list is
|
||||
represented by the notation <b>BOOST_PP_NIL.<br>
