Subject: member inconsistency?
Date: Thu, 28 Jan 2016 09:42:49 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87twly2iye.fsf@nicolasgoaziou.fr> (raw)

Hello,

The following behaviour is surprising

  (assq 'a 'b)   => #ERROR
  (memq 'a 'b)   => #ERROR
  (assoc 'a 'b)  => #ERROR

so far so good, but

  (member 'a 'b) => nil

I was caught by this when replacing (member SYMBOL ...) with (memq
SYMBOL ...). Is it intentional? Should I file a bug report instead?


Regards,

--
