<h2 class="section"> 8.1 Control </h2>
<p>Note: in the following descriptions, an <em>instructionlist</em> can be a list or
a word. In the latter case, the word is parsed into list form before it is
run. Thus, <tt>RUN READWORD</tt> or <tt>RUN READLIST</tt> will work. The
former is slightly preferable because it allows for a continued line (with <code>~</code>)
that includes a comment (with <code>;</code>) on the first line.
</p>
<p>A <var>tf</var> input must be the word <code>TRUE</code>, the word <code>FALSE</code>, or a list. If it's a
list, then it must be a Logo expression, which will be evaluated to produce
a value that must be <code>TRUE</code> or <code>FALSE</code>. The comparisons with <code>TRUE</code> and <code>FALSE</code>
are always case-insensitive.
</p>
<p>A runlist can consist of either a single expression (that produces a value)
or zero or more instructions (that do something, rather than output a value),
depending on the context:

<p>command. If the first input has the value <code>TRUE</code>, then <code>IF</code> runs the second

(If given a third input, IF acts like <code>IFELSE</code>, as described below.) It
is an error if the first input is not either <code>TRUE</code> or <code>FALSE</code>.
</p>
<p>For compatibility with earlier versions of Logo, if an <code>IF</code> instruction is
not enclosed in parentheses, but the first thing on the instruction line
after the second input expression is a literal list (i.e., a list in
square brackets), the <code>IF</code> is treated as if it were <code>IFELSE</code>, but a warning
message is given. If this aberrant <code>IF</code> appears in a procedure body, the
warning is given only the first time the procedure is invoked in each
Logo session.

<p>command. Must be used within the scope of a <code>CATCH</code> with an equal tag.
Ends the running of the instructionlist of the <code>CATCH</code>. If <code>THROW</code> is used

<p><tt>THROW "TOPLEVEL</tt> can be used to terminate all running procedures and

system interrupt character (<alt-S> for wxWidgets; otherwise normally

Mac) has the same effect.
</p>
<p><tt>THROW "ERROR</tt> can be used to generate an error condition. If the error
is not caught, it prints a message (<code>THROW "ERROR</code>) with the usual
indication of where the error (in this case the <code>THROW</code>) occurred. If a
second input is used along with a tag of <code>ERROR</code>, that second input is
used as the text of the error message instead of the standard message.
Also, in this case, the location indicated for the error will be, not
the location of the <code>THROW</code>, but the location where the procedure
containing the <code>THROW</code> was invoked. This allows user-defined procedures
to generate error messages as if they were primitives. Note: in this
case the corresponding <tt>CATCH "ERROR</tt>, if any, does not output, since the
second input to <code>THROW</code> is not considered a return value.
</p>
<p><tt>THROW "SYSTEM</tt> immediately leaves Logo, returning to the operating
system, without printing the usual parting message and without deleting
any editor temporary file written by EDIT.

<p>works like <code>OUTPUT</code> except that the expression that provides the input
value might not, in fact, output a value, in which case the effect is
like <code>STOP</code>. This is intended for use in control structure definitions,
for cases in which you don't know whether or not some expression
produces a value. Example:
</p>
<table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">to invoke :function [:inputs] 2
.maybeoutput apply :function :inputs

a b c

<p>This is an alternative to <code>RUNRESULT</code>. It's fast and easy to use, at the
cost of being an exception to Logo's evaluation rules. (Ordinarily, it
should be an error if the expression that's supposed to provide an input
to something doesn't have a value.)

<p>outputs a list equal to its input but with certain substitutions. If a
member of the input list is the word ‘<samp>,</samp>’ (comma) then the following
member should be an instructionlist that produces an output when run.
That output value replaces the comma and the instructionlist. If a
member of the input list is the word ‘<samp>,@</samp>’ (comma atsign) then the
following member should be an instructionlist that outputs a list when
run. The members of that list replace the ‘<samp>,@</samp>’ and the instructionlist.

</p>
<p>A word starting with ‘<samp>",</samp>’ (quote comma) or ‘<samp>:,</samp>’ (colon comma)

replacing what comes after the comma.

<p>command. The first input must be a list containing three or four
members: (1) a word, which will be used as the name of a local variable;
(2) a word or list that will be evaluated as by <code>RUN</code> to determine a
number, the starting value of the variable; (3) a word or list that will
be evaluated to determine a number, the limit value of the variable; (4)
an optional word or list that will be evaluated to determine the step
size. If the fourth member is missing, the step size will be 1 or –1
depending on whether the limit value is greater than or less than the
starting value, respectively.
</p>
<p>The second input is an instructionlist. The effect of <code>FOR</code> is to run
that instructionlist repeatedly, assigning a new value to the control
variable (the one named by the first member of the <var>forcontrol</var> list) each
time. First the starting value is assigned to the control variable.
Then the value is compared to the limit value. <code>FOR</code> is complete when the
sign of <code>(current - limit)</code> is the same as the sign of the step size. (If
no explicit step size is provided, the instructionlist is always run at
least once. An explicit step size can lead to a zero-trip <code>FOR</code>, e.g.,
<tt>FOR [I 1 0 1] ...</tt>). Otherwise, the instructionlist is run, then the step is added to the current value of the control variable and FOR returns to
the comparison step.

clause is a list whose first element is either an expression whose
value is <code>TRUE</code> or <code>FALSE</code>, or the word <code>ELSE</code>, and whose butfirst is a Logo
expression or instruction. <code>COND</code> examines the clauses in order. If a
clause begins with the word <code>ELSE</code> (upper or lower case), then the

<h2 class="section"> 8.2 Template-based Iteration </h2>
<p>The procedures in this section are iteration tools based on the idea of a
<em>template.</em> This is a generalization of an instruction list or an
expression list in which <em>slots</em> are provided for the tool to insert varying
data. Four different forms of template can be used.
</p>
<p>The most commonly used form for a template is ‘<samp>explicit-slot</samp>’ form, or
‘<samp>question mark</samp>’ form. Example:
</p>
<table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">? show map [? * ?] [2 3 4 5]
[4 9 16 25]
?
</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>In this example, the <code>MAP</code> tool evaluated the template <code>[? * ?]</code>
repeatedly, with each of the members of the data list <code>[2 3 4 5]</code>
substituted in turn for the question marks. The same value was used for every
question mark in a given evaluation. Some tools allow for more than one datum
to be substituted in parallel; in these cases the slots are indicated by
<code>?1</code> for the first datum, <code>?2</code> for the second, and so on:
</p>
<table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">? show (map [(word ?1 ?2 ?1)] [a b c] [d e f])
[ada beb cfc]
?
</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>If the template wishes to compute the datum number, the form <code>(? 1)</code> is
equivalent to <code>?1</code>, so <code>(? ?1)</code> means the datum whose number is given in
datum number 1. Some tools allow additional slot designations, as shown
in the individual descriptions.
</p>
<p>The second form of template is the ‘<samp>named-procedure</samp>’ form. If the
template is a word rather than a list, it is taken as the name of a procedure.
That procedure must accept a number of inputs equal to the number of parallel
data slots provided by the tool; the procedure is applied to all of the
available data in order. That is, if data <code>?1</code> through <code>?3</code> are
available, the template <code>"PROC</code> is equivalent to <tt>[PROC ?1 ?2 ?3]</tt>.
</p>
<table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">? show (map "word [a b c] [d e f])
[ad be cf]
?
to dotprod :a :b ; vector dot product
op apply "sum (map "product :a :b)
end
</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>The third form of template is ‘<samp>named-slot</samp>’ or ‘<samp>lambda</samp>’ form. This
form is indicated by a template list containing more than one member, whose
first member is itself a list. The first member is taken as a list of names;
local variables are created with those names and given the available data in
order as their values. The number of names must equal the number of available
data. This form is needed primarily when one iteration tool must be used
within the template list of another, and the <code>?</code> notation would be ambiguous in
the inner template. Example:
</p>
<table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">to matmul :m1 :m2 [:tm2 transpose :m2] ; multiply two matrices
output map [[row] map [[col] dotprod :row :col] :tm2] :m1
end
</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>The fourth form is ‘<samp>procedure text</samp>’ form, a variant of lambda form. In
this form, the template list contains at least two members, all of which are
lists. This is the form used by the <code>DEFINE</code> and <code>TEXT</code> primitives,
and <code>APPLY</code> accepts it so that the text of a defined procedure can be
used as a template.
</p>
<p>Note: The fourth form of template is interpreted differently from the others,
in that Logo considers it to be an independent defined procedure for the
purposes of <code>OUTPUT</code> and <code>STOP</code>. For example, the following two
instructions are identical:
</p>
<table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">? print apply [[x] :x+3] [5]
8
? print apply [[x] [output :x+3]] [5]
8
</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>although the first instruction is in named-slot form and the second is in
procedure-text form. The named-slot form can be understood as telling Logo to
evaluate the expression <tt>:x+3</tt> in place of the entire invocation of
apply, with the variable <code>x</code> temporarily given the value <code>5</code>. The
procedure-text form can be understood as invoking the procedure
</p>
<table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">to foo :x
output :x+3
end
</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>with input <code>5</code>, but without actually giving the procedure a name. If
the use of <code>OUTPUT</code> were interchanged in these two examples, we'd get errors:
</p>
<table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">? print apply [[x] output :x+3] [5]
Can only use output inside a procedure
? print apply [[x] [:x+3]] [5]
You don't say what to do with 8
</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>The named-slot form can be used with <code>STOP</code> or <code>OUTPUT</code> inside a procedure,
to stop the enclosing procedure.
</p>
<p>The following iteration tools are extended versions of the ones in Appendix
B of the book <cite>Computer Science Logo Style, Volume 3: Advanced Topics</cite> by
Brian Harvey [MIT Press, 1987]. The extensions are primarily to allow for
variable numbers of inputs.

evaluating the <var>template</var> with that consituent in its slot is <code>TRUE</code>.
If there is no such constituent, the empty list is output.

<p>In a template, the symbol <code>?REST</code> represents the portion of the
<var>data</var> input to the right of the member currently being used as the
<code>?</code> slot-filler. That is, if the data input is <code>[A B C D E]</code>
and the template is being evaluated with <code>?</code> replaced by <code>B</code>, then
<code>?REST</code> would be replaced by <code>[C D E]</code>.
</p>
<p>In a template, the symbol <code>#</code> represents the position in the <var>data</var>
input of the member currently being used as the <code>?</code> slot-filler. That
is, if the data input is <code>[A B C D E]</code> and the template is being
evaluated with <code>?</code> replaced by <code>B</code>, then <code>#</code> would be replaced

<p>outputs the result of applying the <var>template</var> to accumulate the members of
the <var>data</var> input. The template must be a two-slot function. Typically it
is an associative function name like <code>SUM</code>. If the <var>data</var> input has
only one constituent (member in a list or character in a word), the output is
that consituent. Otherwise, the template is first applied with <code>?1</code>
filled with the next-to-last consitient and <code>?2</code> with the last
constituent. Then, if there are more constituents, the template is applied
with <code>?1</code> filled with the next constituent to the left and <code>?2</code> with
the result from the previous evaluation. This process continues until all
constituents have been used. The data input may not be empty.
</p>
<p>Note: If the template is, like <code>SUM</code>, the name of a procedure that is
capable of accepting arbitrarily many inputs, it is more efficient to
use <code>APPLY</code> instead of <code>REDUCE</code>. The latter is good for associative
procedures that have been written to accept exactly two inputs:
</p>
<table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">to max :a :b
output ifelse :a > :b [:a] [:b]
end
print reduce "max [...]
</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>Alternatively, <code>REDUCE</code> can be used to write <code>MAX</code> as a procedure
that accepts any number of inputs, as <code>SUM</code> does:
</p>
<table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">to max [:inputs] 2
if emptyp :inputs ~
[(throw "error [not enough inputs to max])]
output reduce [ifelse ?1 > ?2 [?1] [?2]] :inputs

which need not be the same length.

<p>outputs the result of applying a template (or several templates, as
explained below) repeatedly, with a given value filling the slot the
first time, and the result of each application filling the slot for the
following application.
</p>
<p>In the simplest case, <code>CASCADE</code> has three inputs. The second input is a
one-slot expression template. That template is evaluated some number of
times (perhaps zero). On the first evaluation, the slot is filled with
the third input; on subsequent evaluations, the slot is filled with the
result of the previous evaluation. The number of evaluations is
determined by the first input. This can be either a nonnegative
integer, in which case the template is evaluated that many times, or a
predicate expression template, in which case it is evaluated (with the
same slot filler that will be used for the evaluation of the second
input) repeatedly, and the <code>CASCADE</code> evaluation continues as long as the
predicate value is <code>FALSE</code>. (In other words, the predicate template
indicates the condition for stopping.)
</p>
<p>If the template is evaluated zero times, the output from <code>CASCADE</code> is the
third (<var>startvalue</var>) input. Otherwise, the output is the value produced
by the last template evaluation.
</p>
<p><code>CASCADE</code> templates may include the symbol <code>#</code> to represent the
number of times the template has been evaluated. This slot is filled with 1
for the first evaluation, 2 for the second, and so on.
</p>
<table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">? show cascade 5 [lput # ?] []

?
</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>Several cascaded results can be computed in parallel by providing additional
template-startvalue pairs as inputs to <code>CASCADE</code>. In this case, all
templates (including the endtest template, if used) are multi-slot, with the
number of slots equal to the number of pairs of inputs. In each round of
evaluations, <code>?2</code>, for example, represents the result of evaluating the
second template in the previous round. If the total number of inputs
(including the first endtest input) is odd, then the output from CASCADE is
the final value of the first template. If the total number of inputs is even,
then the last input is a template that is evaluated once, after the end test
is satisfied, to determine the output from <code>CASCADE</code>.
