You may work in groups of 2 (preferred) or individually.
At the end of the lab please send me and your group partner(s) all your Scheme files as e-mail attachments. My e-mail is elenam at morris.umn.edu. The subject of your e-mail must be "1301 Lab 8" followed by "Final" or "Not final", depending on whether this is a final submission or you are still working on it. If you need to finish it, make sure to set up a time with your group partner(s) to finish the lab.
Due Tuesday, December 1st, at 11:59pm. If you submit the final version during the lab, you are done.
Question 1
Write a function that builds filter functions, similarly to a building
function for map or foldr here.
Your function must take one parameter (the filtering criterion which is
a function) and
returns a function that filters a list according to that
criterion. For instance, using the filtering function builder allows us
to create a function to filter out all numbers divisible by 3 by
passing an appropriate criterion function to a
filter-builder.
You may use local or lambda to define the function.
Use your function to define the following functions. Use lambda to define the criterion function that is passed to filter-builder.
filter-div3 that takes a list of integers and creates a
list of all its elements divisible by 3. For instance:
(check-expect (filter-div3 (list 2 21 22 33 -1 -3)) (list 21 33 -3))
filter-longer-than-3 that takes a list of lists and leaves only
lists of length 3 and shorter:
(check-expect (filter-longer-than-3 (list (list 1 2 3 4) (list 1 2) (list 1 2 3) (list 1 2 3 4 5)))
(list (list 1 2) (list 1 2 3)))
filter-a-b that removes all symbols from a list of symbols that
are not 'a or 'b:
(check-expect (filter-a-b (list 'a 'c 'b 'd 'a)) (list 'a 'b 'a))
