Formal semantics

This section provides a formal denotational semantics for the primitive expressions of Scheme and selected built-in procedures. The concepts and notation used here are described in [STOY77].

Note: The formal semantics section was written in LaTeX which is incompatible with TeXinfo. See the Formal semantics section: <http://swissnet.ai.mit.edu/~jaffer/r5rs-formal.pdf>
