• Notes on Homework 6.
  Here is what you need to add to the-grammar for the cond question:

      (expression ;;; PROBLEM 2
       ("cond" (arbno expression "==>" expression) "end")
       cond-exp)

  and you'll have to add something along the lines of

    (cond-exp (test-exps conseq-sexps)  ;; PROBLEM 2
            … )

  to eval-expression. The form of a cond in our language would be something like

    cond zero?(x) ==> 26  (sometest v) ==> 99 end
