Exercise 1.10: The following procedure computes
|
||
|
a mathematical function called Ackermann’s function.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
(define (A x y)
|
||
|
(cond ((= y 0) 0)
|
||
|
((= x 0) (* 2 y))
|
||
|
((= y 1) 2)
|
||
|
(else (A (- x 1)
|
||
|
(A x (- y 1))))))
|

Consider the following procedures, where A is the procedure
|
||
|
defined above:
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
(define (f n) (A 0 n))
|
||
|
(define (g n) (A 1 n))
|
||
|
(define (h n) (A 2 n))
|
||
|
(define (k n) (* 5 n n))
|
||
|
|
