Subject: What does #-3# mean?
Date: Mon, 23 Aug 2010 17:03:22 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1282579402.2957.6.camel@debianrts.home> (raw)

I am displaying a structure that seems to be circular, and it shows

(x_LIST . #-3#)

x_LIST is my own symbol but what is the meaning of the other member of the pair?

And how does one track it down this notation in the guile manual? I am
sure I came across this before, but cannot locate it in the manual
(again?)
