How to Use this Document 

SubL is a computer language built by members of Cycorp. SubL was written to support the Cyc® application, allowing it to run both under Lisp environments and as a C application generated by a SubL-to-C translator. This document describes the primitive functions of SubL.

Due to the close similarities between SubL and Common Lisp, the Table of Contents and structure of this document intentionally mirror that of
"Common Lisp: The Language",

2nd Edition,
Guy L. Steele Jr

making it easy to compare and contrast the two languages. For the most part, this document focuses only on the differences between SubL and Common Lisp.

1 : Introduction

CLtL2 Reference

SubL is a programming language intended to be very similar to a simplified version of Common Lisp where those features that are either complex, rarely-used, or difficult to implement in a prodecural language have been excised.

Unlike Common Lisp, SubL is not a purely functional language. Several SubL constructs can only be used procedurally. In order to emphasize this difference, the following naming convention for SubL constructs is used:

A SubL function will have the same name as the analogous Common Lisp function if it is intended to have the exact same basic functionality. The argument list may be simplified, but the intent and use are likely to be the same.

If there is a substantial behavioral difference between a SubL function and its Common Lisp counterpart, its name will be the Common Lisp name prepended with a single character -- either "c", "p" or "f".

"c" indicates a construct that is either only procedural or functional.

"p" indicates the procedural version of a Common Lisp construct.
"f" indicates the functional version of a Common Lisp construct.

A procedural construct in SubL is one which is suitable for evaluation as either one form in an explicit PROGN or as one form in an implicit progn, which occur in the &body; sections of many of the procedural forms such as CLET, PWHEN, CDOLIST etc.

Here is a table of all the procedural constructs in SubL and the Common Lisp analog:

SubL Procedural Construct Common Lisp Equivalent
PROGN progn
PIF if
PWHEN when
PUNLESS unless
PCOND cond
PCASE case
CSETQ setq
CSETF setf
CINC incf
CDEC decf
CPUSH push
CPUSHNEW pushnew
CPOP pop
CLET let*
CMULTIPLE-VALUE-BIND multiple-value-bind
CDO do*
CDOLIST dolist
CSOME
CDOTIMES dotimes
CDOHASH
CCATCH catch
CUNWIND-PROTECT unwind-protect
RET return-from

A functional construct in SubL is one which returns a value. Here is a table of all the functional constructs in SubL and the Common Lisp analog:

SubL Functional Construct Common Lisp Equvalent
CAND and
COR or
CNOT not
FIF if
FWHEN when
FUNLESS unless

The body of a function or macro definition is considered an implicit progn, and so all forms in the body should be procedural. A function call can be used as a procedural construct. In this case, the returned value is simply ignored.


2 : Data Types

CLtL2 Reference

SubL has a flat type heirarchy. Each type is described in more detail in the sections about the methods for that particular type.

SubL supports these built-in Common Lisp datatypes:

Numbers: fixnum
float
Symbols: symbol
Lists: cons
Arrays: vector
Characters: character
Strings: string
Hashtables: eq hashtable
eql hashtable
equal hashtable
equalp hashtable
Streams: stream
Functions: function

SubL does not support these Common Lisp datatypes:

Multi-dimensional arrays
Packages
Pathnames
Random-states
Lambda-Expressions or Closures

SubL has only special-case support for these datatypes:

Readtables:
SubL only supports a single internal readtable

New data types can be introduced via DEFSTRUCT.

3 : Scope and Extent

CLtL2 Reference

Special variables in SubL are all (and only) those variables defined globally with DEFVAR or DEFPARAMETER. In addition, the name of each special variable must begin and end with an asterisk character : '*'.

Special variables have indefinite scope and dynamic extent. All other variables have lexical scope and dynamic extent

Variables are introduced via:

Function call
A new set of variables for the formal parameters of the function are introduced. The extent of the function arguments is the duration of the function invocation.
CLET, CMULTIPLE-VALUE-BIND, CDESTRUCTURING-BIND
These constructs explicitly introduce and initialize new local variables. The extent of these variables is until exit from the constuct.
CDO, CDOLIST, CSOME, CDOTIMES, CDOHASH
These iteration constructs explicitly introduce and update local variables which represent the state of the iteration. The extent of these variables is until exit from the iteration construct.

When a local variable is introduced with the same name as a local variable which is already within the current scope and extent, the new variable shadows the outer variable.

The initialization of a local variable is considered to occur within the scope of the new local variable. Consequently, a variable which is shadowing an outer variable cannot be initialized in terms of the outer value. For example, this is not allowed : 

(define foo (x)
  (clet ((x (+ x 1)))
    (print x))
  (ret nil))

However, if the variable is a special variable, the CLET is actually introducing a binding for the special variable, not introducing a new local variable. In this case, the initialization of the binding can be a function of its current value for the variable being bound. For example, this is allowed: 

(defvar *some-var* 1)

(define foo (x)
  (clet ((*some-var* (+ *some-var* x)))
    (print *some-var*))
  (ret nil))

The construct RET must be used for a function or macro definition to return its intended result.


4 : Type Specifiers

CLtL2 Reference

SubL does not support type specifiers.

5 : Program Structure

CLtL2 Reference

Program structure in SubL mirrors that of Common Lisp almost exactly. All objects except lists and symbols are self-evaluating. This includes numbers, characters, strings, vectors and hashtables.
In addition :
  • Keyword symbols are self-evaluating.
  • The symbols T and NIL are self-evaluating.

5.3.1 : Defining Named Functions

CLtL2 Reference

macro DEFINE : (name arglist &body body)
All functions in SubL must be named and therefore defined via the SubL construct DEFINE. See also the similar construct DEFPOLYMORPHIC which is used to define generic functions which switch off the type of the first argument.
Argument lists for user-defined function can only be of this form:
( {var}* [&optional; {var | ( var [initform [supplied-var]] ) }*] )
In short, SubL supports &optional; arguments for user-defined functions but does not support &keyword;, &aux; or &rest; arguments for user-defined functions.

5.3.2 : Declaring Global Variables and Named Constants

CLtL2 Reference

macro DEFVAR : (variable &optional initialization documentation)
macro DEFPARAMETER : (variable initialization &optional documentation)
DEFVAR and DEFPARAMETER are the SubL constructs used to define global variables. The name of each variable must begin and end with an asterisk.
SubL enforces an important distinction between these two constructs, which is described in greater detail under WRITE-IMAGE.
macro DEFCONSTANT : (variable initialization &optional documentation)
As with DEFVAR and DEFPARAMETER, the name of each named constant defined via DEFCONSTANT must begin and end with an asterisk.

6 : Predicates

CLtL2 Reference

6.1 : Logical Values

CLtL2 Reference

The symbols NIL and T are used to represent the logical values "true" and "false" in SubL and behave exactly as they do in Common Lisp.

6.2.2 : Specific Data Type Predicates

CLtL2 Reference

For the most part, the following predicates which check for specific data types behave exactly as they do in Common Lisp.
function NULL : (x) Same as Common Lisp
function SYMBOLP : (x) Same as Common Lisp
function ATOM : (x) Same as Common Lisp
function CONSP : (x) Same as Common Lisp
function LISTP : (x) Same as Common Lisp
function NUMBERP : (x) Same as Common Lisp
function INTEGERP : (x) Same as Common Lisp
function FLOATP : (x) Same as Common Lisp
function CHARACTERP : (x) Same as Common Lisp
function STRINGP : (x) Same as Common Lisp
function VECTORP : (x) Same as Common Lisp
function FUNCTIONP : (x) Follows the CLtL2 implementation
function FUNCTION-SPEC-P : (x) Returns T IFF x is an object suitable for FUNCALL

In SubL, FUNCTIONP only returns T if its argument is a function object. The function FUNCTION-SPEC-P returns T if its argument is suitable for FUNCALL or APPLY.

6.3 : Equality Predicates

CLtL2 Reference

The SubL equality predicates behave exactly like their Common Lisp counterparts.

function EQ : (x y)
function EQL : (x y)
function EQUAL : (x y)
function EQUALP : (x y)

6.4 : Logical Operators

CLtL2 Reference

SubL logical operations only return T or NIL. Otherwise, they behave like their Common Lisp counterparts.
macro CNOT : (x)
macro CAND : (&rest args)
macro COR : (&rest args)

7 : Control Structure

CLtL2 Reference

7.1.1 : Reference

CLtL2 Reference

These SubL constructs behave exactly like their Common Lisp counterparts.

function QUOTE : (data)
macro FUNCTION : (fspec)
function SYMBOL-VALUE : (x)
function SYMBOL-FUNCTION : (x)
function BOUNDP : (x)
function FBOUNDP : (x)

7.1.2 : Assignment

CLtL2 Reference

macro CSETQ : (var value &rest var-val-pairs)
Since CSETQ is procedural in SubL, it does not return a value.
Otherwise, it behaves just like setq in Common Lisp.

These SubL functions for setting and unsetting symbol properties behave like their Common Lisp counterparts.

function SET : (symbol value)
function MAKUNBOUND : (symbol)
function FMAKUNBOUND : (symbol)

7.2 : Generalized Variables

CLtL2 Reference

macro CSETF : (place val)
CSETF is a more restricted version of setf in Common Lisp. First, since it is procedural, like CSETQ it does not return a value. Second, there is a much more restricted set of place-specifiers which are allowable.

Here is a complete table of the allowable CSETF forms, and their equivalent SubL expansions:

CSETF form Equivalent SubL expansion
(CSETF variable value) (CSETQ variable value)
(CSETF (AREF vector n) value ) (SET-AREF vector n value)
(CSETF (NTH n list) value) (SET-NTH n list value)
(CSETF (CAR cons) value) (RPLACA cons value)
(CSETF (CDR cons) value) (RPLACD cons value)
(CSETF (GET symbol indicator) value) (PUT symbol indicator value)
(CSETF (GETHASH key hashtable) value) (SETHASH key hashtable value)
(CSETF (SYMBOL-VALUE symbol) value) (SET symbol value)
(CSETF (defstruct-slot object) value) (set-defstruct-slot object value)

In the above table, defstruct-slot refers to any structure slot accessor function which got defined via defstruct, and set-defstruct-slot refers to the corresponding setter function for the given accessor.

7.3 : Function Invocation

CLtL2 Reference

These functions behave like their Common Lisp counterparts.

function APPLY : (function argument &rest arguments)
function FUNCALL : (function &rest args)

The first argument to both APPLY and FUNCALL must satisfy FUNCTION-SPEC-P.

7.4 : Simple Sequencing

CLtL2 Reference

macro PROGN : (&body body)
In SubL, PROGN is procedural and therefore does not return a value. Since it is intended to be essentially procedural in Common Lisp as well, the same name is used even though they have slightly different semantics.

7.5 : Establishing New Variable Bindings

CLtL2 Reference

macro CLET : (bindings &body body)
The SubL construct CLET can be used to introduce new local variables or bind special variables. The variables are initialized in order just like LET* in Common Lisp. Since it is procedural, it does not return a value.

SubL has no counterpart to Common Lisp's LET construct.

macro CPROGV : (special-vars bindings &body body)
CPROGV is procedural and therefore does not return a value. Otherwise, it is equivalent to progv in Common Lisp.

7.6 : Conditionals

CLtL2 Reference

macro PIF : (condition action else-action)
macro PWHEN : (condition &body body)
macro PUNLESS : (condition &body body)

PIF, PWHEN and PUNLESS are the SubL procedural variants of if, when and unless from Common Lisp. For each, the condition argument must be a functional construct. Also, PIF takes exactly three arguments, making the action and else-actions identical in form.

macro FIF : (condition true-value false-value)
macro FWHEN : (condition true-value)
macro FUNLESS : (condition false-value)

FIF, FWHEN and FUNLESS are the SubL functional variants of if, when and unless from Common Lisp.

macro PCOND : (&rest clauses)
macro PCASE : (test-object &body clauses)
PCOND and PCASE are the SubL procedural equivalents of cond and case from Common Lisp.

7.7 : Blocks and Exits

CLtL2 Reference

macro RET : (expression)
SubL functions must always return a value, since C functions must return values and all SubL functions must translate into C (Java).
RET is used to return a value from a function or macro definition. All functions and macro definitions behave as if an implicit
(ret nil)
appears at the very end of each function.

7.8.2 : General Iteration

CLtL2 Reference

macro CDO : (vars endtest &body body)
cdo is procedural. It binds its variables in sequence, as with CommonLisp do*

7.8.3 : Simple Iteration Constructs

CLtL2 Reference

macro CDOLIST : ((var listform) &body body)
macro CSOME : ((var list endvar) &body body)
macro CDOTIMES : ((var integer) &body body)
macro CDOHASH : ((key val table) &body body)

7.8.4 : Mapping

CLtL2 Reference

function MAPCAR : (function list &rest more-lists)
function MAPLIST : (function list &rest more-lists)
function MAPC : (function list &rest more-lists)
function MAPL : (function list &rest more-lists)
function MAPCAN : (function list &rest more-lists)
function MAPCON : (function list &rest more-lists)

7.10.1 : Constructs for Handling Multiple Values

CLtL2 Reference

function VALUES : (value &rest more-values)
values returns its args such that they can be bound in a dynamically enclosing multiple-value-bind. The first value is returned as well, since all SubL functions must return a value.
variable *MULTIPLE-VALUES-LIMIT*
macro MULTIPLE-VALUE-LIST : (form)
macro CMULTIPLE-VALUE-BIND : (vars value &body body)

7.10.2 : Rules Governing the Passing of Multiple Values

CLtL2 Reference

In SubL, multiple values are governed the same way that they are in Common Lisp, except that if ANY of the return statements in your function are (values ...) then all of them must be.

7.11 : Dynamic Non-Local Exits

CLtL2 Reference

macro CCATCH : (tag ans-var &body body)
ccatch is procedural, and so does not return values.
macro CUNWIND-PROTECT : (protected-form &body body)
function THROW : (tag result)

8 : Macros

CLtL2 Reference

8.1 : Macro Definition

CLtL2 Reference

SubL Macros are expanded at translation-time. Full Common Lisp macro support is available. However, the macro-expander must use RET to return the expansion.

8.3 : Destructuring

CLtL2 Reference

macro CDESTRUCTURING-BIND : (pattern datum &body body)

8.5 : Environments

function SYMBOL-PLIST : (symbol)

10.2 : The Print Name

CLtL2 Reference

function SYMBOL-NAME : (symbol)
Returns the string which is the name of SYMBOL. When called on a keyword, it returns the ":" prefix as part of the name

10.3 : Creating Symbols

CLtL2 Reference

function MAKE-SYMBOL : (print-name)
function GENSYM : (&optional x)
GENSYM returns new, interned symbols, which are combinations of a string prefix and a numeric suffix. It guarantees that the new symbol was not previously interned.
If the argument X is a number, the gensym counter (used to generate the suffix) is set to X before the new symbol is generated.
if the argument X is a string, the gensym prefix is set to X before the new symbol is generated.
The initial gensym counter value is 1 and the initial gensym prefix is 'G'.
function GENTEMP : (&optional (prefix "T"))
function KEYWORDP : (x)
In SubL, which does not have packages, keywords are any symbol whose name begins with ":"

11 : Packages

CLtL2 Reference

macro IN-PACKAGE : (name)


function INTERN : (string)
Finds and returns a symbol whose name is STRING. INTERN will create the symbol if it does not exist. Unlike Common LISP intern, the SubL version does not allow an argument to specify the package, since SubL does not support packages.


function FIND-SYMBOL : (string)
Finds and returns a symbol whose name is STRING. Unlike Common LISP FIND-SYMBOL, the SubL version does not allow an argument to specify the package, since SubL does not support packages.

12 : Numbers

CLtL2 Reference

SubL only supports fixnums and floats. Fixnums have at least 28 bits of precision.

function NUMBERP : (x)
function FIXNUMP : (x)

function /= : (num1 num2)
function < : (num1 num2)
function > : (num1 num2)

function CHARACTERP : (x)

13.1 : Character Attributes

CLtL2 Reference

SubL does not currently support any attributes for characters. A character exists for each ASCII character code between 0 and 255 inclusive. Thus, the SubL equivalent of Common Lisp's CHAR-CODE-LIMIT is 256.

Macro Character   Reader Action
( Begin reading a list.
) End reading a list or a vector.
' Read in a quoted expression.
; Read a comment until end-of-line.
" Begin or end reading a string.

28 : Common Lisp Object System

CLtL2 Reference

macro DEFPOLYMORPHIC : (name lambda-list &body body)
Defines a new polymorphic function that dispatches on the type of its first argument. <body> defines a default method. The function define-method can be used to define additional methods.

For example:

(defpolymorphic test (a b) (list a b))
(define-method test ((a cons) b) (cons b a))
(define-method test ((a fixnum) b) (+ a b))
The defpolymorphic form defines the function TEST with a default method.
The two define-method forms specialize the behavior of TEST for lists and fixnums.
(test 'foo 'bar) => (FOO BAR)
`(test '(foo) 'bar) => (BAR FOO)\
(test 2 3) => 5


macro DEFINE-METHOD : (name lambda-list &body body)
Defines a method for the polymorphic function <name>
that runs if <dispatch-arg> is of type <type>.
The lambda list must have the same structure as in the DEFPOLYMORPHIC call.


SubL-Specific Features

SubL.1 : Signals

variable *SIGNAL-MAX*
There are *signal-max* total signals available.
function DEFAULT-SIGNAL-HANDLER : (signal)
function INSTALL-SIGNAL-HANDLER : (signal function)

SubL.2 : System Properties

function GET-PROCESS-ID : (&optional default)
Return the current heavyweight process id of this current SubL program.
Return DEFAULT if this cannot be determined.
function GET-MACHINE-NAME : (&optional default)
function GET-NETWORK-NAME : (&optional default)
function GET-USER-NAME : (&optional default)

SubL.3 : Progress Pacifiers

variable *SILENT-PROGRESS?*
macro NOTING-ACTIVITY : (string &body body)
function NOTE-ACTIVITY : ()
macro NOTING-NUMERIC-PROGRESS : (string &body body)
function NOTE-NUMERIC-PROGRESS : (num)
macro NOTING-PERCENT-PROGRESS : (string &body body)
function NOTE-PERCENT-PROGRESS : (index max)

SubL.4 : Process Manipulation

function FORK-PROCESS : (function &optional callback output-file)
Spawn a heavyweight child process to call FUNCTION, which takes no arguments.
FUNCTION must return an integer.
CALLBACK, if provided, must be a function of one argument which is called on the returned value within the address space of the parent process.
OUTPUT-FILE, if provided, is a file to which standard output and error are piped

while executing FUNCTION.

function RESTART-PROCESS : (&optional world-spec init-file-pathname init-form-spec)
Restart the current heavyweight process.
WORLD-SPEC, if provided, is the filename of a world to use.
INIT-FILE-PATHNAME, if provided, is a file of initializatio forms to eval.
INIT-FORM-SPEC, if provided, is a form to execute.
The values used for these when the current process was started are used if unprovided.

SubL.5 : Memory Interaction

function GC : (&optional level)
macro WITH-STATIC-AREA : (&body body)
function WRITE-IMAGE : (filename &optional do-full-gc)
Save the current state of virtual memory in a file called FILENAME.
If DO-FULL-GC is true, then a full garbage collection is performed before writing the image.
Otherwise, a dynamic garbage collection is performed and remaining objects are promoted to being static ones.
During the initialization of a SubL system at startup, variables defined via DEFVAR have their initial values set via their state in the world file used at startup, ignoring the initial value specified by the code. DEFPARAMETER variables and DEFCONSTANT global constants have their values initialized via the code on startup.
The net result of this distinction is as follows: if a world is saved out via WRITE-IMAGE, and then used to restart a SubL system, the values of DEFVAR variables will persist, while any changes to DEFPARAMETER variables will be lost when they are reset to their original code-specified initial values on startup.
