Subject: PCL question about using &rest and &key parameters together

I was reading in Seibel's PCL the following:

You can safely combine &rest and &key parameters, but the behavior may be
a bit surprising initially. Normally the presence of either &rest or &key
in a parameter list causes all the values remaining after the required and
&optional parameters have been filled in to be processed in a particular
way--either gathered into a list for a &rest parameter or assigned to the
appropriate &key parameters based on the keywords. If both &rest and &key
appear in a parameter list, then both things happen--all the remaining
values, which include the keywords themselves, are gathered into a list
that's bound to the &rest parameter, and the appropriate values are also
bound to the &key parameters.

So I tried the following:

(defun foo (a &rest rest &key b c)
(list a rest b c))

(foo 1 2 :b 3 :c 4)

When I run it from slime, it bombs with the following error message:

Function called with odd number of keyword arguments.
[Condition of type KERNEL:SIMPLE-PROGRAM-ERROR]

Restarts:
0: [ABORT] Abort handling SLIME request. 1: [ABORT] Return to Top-Level.

Backtrace:
0: (C::%ODD-KEYWORD-ARGUMENTS-ERROR)
1: (NIL 1 (2 :B 3 :C 4) 5)[:OPTIONAL] 2: (SWANK::EVAL-REGION "(foo 1 2
:b 3 :c 4)

Any idea why this doesn't work as expected? I'm using CMUCL.

Thanks

I am sorry if I think like this, but sometimes(keyword sometimes) I like distributing my interpreters. Anyway, I found the absolute minimum libraries needed for Python to work with Win32. And, I included FLTK for the GUI toolkit. Sorry, but wxPython didn't fit my <30MB requirement. You can basically download it and find out what libraries are needed. Some of the core included string.py, stat.py, for example.

Dear all, I'm using XML in a project. This is a very simple and small file that follows an even simpler XSD schema.

This library should: - be lightweight (!) - thus not depend on xerces, MSXML and similar - cross-platform (g++) compatible - can use STL...

I find it arduous to type dictionary and also feel that any data I create for a program deserves to have its operations tied to it. As a result, I often create lots of lightweight classes.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
