<h2>/</h2>macro for division and reciprocal
<pre>Major Section:  <a href="PROGRAMMING.html">PROGRAMMING</a>
</pre><p>

See <a href="BINARY-_star_.html">binary-*</a> for multiplication and see <a href="UNARY-_slash_.html">unary-/</a> for reciprocal.
<p>
Note that <code>/</code> represents division as follows:

<pre>
(/ x y)
</pre>

represents the same term as

<pre>
(* x (/ y))
</pre>

which is really

<pre>
(binary-* x (unary-/ y)).
</pre>

Also note that <code>/</code> represents reciprocal as follows:

<pre>
(/ x)
</pre>

expands to

<pre>
(unary-/ x).
</pre>

<code>/</code> is a Common Lisp macro.  See any Common Lisp documentation
for more information.
