<h2>PPROGN</h2>evaluate a sequence of forms that return <a href="STATE.html">state</a>
<pre>Major Section:  <a href="PROGRAMMING.html">PROGRAMMING</a>
</pre><p>


<pre>
Example Form:
(pprogn
 (cond ((or (equal (car l) #\) (equal (car l) slash-char))
        (princ$ #\ channel state))
       (t state))
 (princ$ (car l) channel state)
 (mv (cdr l) state))
</pre>

The convention for <code>pprogn</code> usage is to give it a non-empty
sequence of forms, each of which (except possibly for the last)
returns state (see <a href="STATE.html">state</a>) as its only value.  The <a href="STATE.html">state</a> returned by
each but the last is passed on to the next.  The value or values of
the last form are returned as the value of the <code>pprogn</code>.<p>

If you are using single-threaded objects you may wish to define an
analogue of this function for your own <a href="STOBJ.html">stobj</a>.
<p>
General Form:

<pre>
(PPROGN form1
        form2
        ...
        formk
        result-form)
</pre>

This general form is equivalent, via macro expansion, to:

<pre>
(LET ((STATE form1))
     (LET ((STATE form2))
          ...
          (LET ((STATE formk))
               result-form)))
</pre>
