How Emacs evaluates a form depends on its data type. Emacs has three different kinds of form that are evaluated differently: symbols, lists, and all other types. This section describes all three kinds, one by one, starting with the other types, which are self-evaluating forms. </p> <table class="menu" border="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> -<td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="self_002devaluating-forms" accesskey="1">Self-Evaluating Forms</a> -</td> -<td> </td> -<td align="left" valign="top">Forms that evaluate to themselves. </td> -</tr> <tr> -<td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="symbol-forms" accesskey="2">Symbol Forms</a> -</td> -<td> </td> -<td align="left" valign="top">Symbols evaluate as variables. </td> -</tr> <tr> -<td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="classifying-lists" accesskey="3">Classifying Lists</a> -</td> -<td> </td> -<td align="left" valign="top">How to distinguish various sorts of list forms. </td> -</tr> <tr> -<td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="function-indirection" accesskey="4">Function Indirection</a> -</td> -<td> </td> -<td align="left" valign="top">When a symbol appears as the car of a list, we find the real function via the symbol. </td> -</tr> <tr> -<td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="function-forms" accesskey="5">Function Forms</a> -</td> -<td> </td> -<td align="left" valign="top">Forms that call functions. </td> -</tr> <tr> -<td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="macro-forms" accesskey="6">Macro Forms</a> -</td> -<td> </td> -<td align="left" valign="top">Forms that call macros. </td> -</tr> <tr> -<td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="special-forms" accesskey="7">Special Forms</a> -</td> -<td> </td> -<td align="left" valign="top">Special forms are idiosyncratic primitives, most of them extremely important. </td> -</tr> <tr> -<td align="left" valign="top">• <a href="autoloading" accesskey="8">Autoloading</a> -</td> -<td> </td> -<td align="left" valign="top">Functions set up to load files containing their real definitions. </td> -</tr> </table><div class="_attribution"> - <p class="_attribution-p"> - Copyright © 1990-1996, 1998-2022 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <br>Licensed under the GNU GPL license.<br> - <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Forms.html" class="_attribution-link">https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Forms.html</a> - </p> -</div> |
