recursion was nevah my strong point
(show me someone who says their
strong point is recursion and i'll
show you someone who has
STACKS=9e1000,256e10000
in their config.sys)
but i ran your program and got the following output:
----begin paste
Parameter 1 is an atom.  Parameter 2 is a sequence.
Parameter 1 is a sequence.  Parameter 2 is an atom.
looks ok to me, parameters have swapped
Parameter 1 is an atom.  Parameter 2 is a sequence.
Parameter 1 is a sequence.  Parameter 2 is an atom.
my my, I now have two copies of parameter2
----end paste
now this was run with euph 2.0 and i dont see a problem?!?!
it's very much granted that i may not know what i'm looking
at here... also it may have been fixed in 2.0???
