<h2>Syntax</h2>
<dl>
<dt>(unless <i>test</i> [<i>expr</i> ... ])</dt>
<dd><i>test</i> - an expression, <a href="nil.htm">NIL</a> or
non-<a href="nil.htm">NIL</a><br>
<i>expr</i> - expressions comprising a body of code<br>
returns - the value of the last expression or
<a href="nil.htm">NIL</a></dd>
</dl>
<h2>Description</h2>
<p>The 'unless' special form executes the 'expr' forms if 'test' evaluates
to a <a href="nil.htm">NIL</a> value. If 'test' is
<nobr><a href="nil.htm">NIL</a> ,</nobr> the value of the last
'expr' is returned as the result. If 'test' is
<nobr>non-<a href="nil.htm">NIL</a> ,</nobr>
<a href="nil.htm">NIL</a> is returned with none of 'expr'
evaluated.</p>
<h2>Examples</h2>
<pre class="example">
(unless NIL) <font color="#008844">; returns NIL</font>
(unless T) <font color="#008844">; returns NIL</font>
(unless NIL (print "hi") 'foo) <font color="#008844">; prints "hi" returns FOO</font>
(unless (listp "a")
(print "not a list")) <font color="#008844">; prints "not a list"</font>
<font color="#008844">; returns "not a list"</font>
