cons

 

 

Overview

The cons function builds a Pair from object1 {object1} which becomes the car and object2 {object2} which becomes the cdr.

Usage

The cons function constructs a Pair from any two Analytic Information Server objects.

 

Syntax

Expression:

(cons object1 object2)


Arguments Name Type Description
Argument:object1Character String Symbol Vector BitVector ByteVector IntVector FltVector ObjVector Structure Dictionary Directory Brick Matrix NumMatrix Integer Float Number Complex Boolean Any Analytic Information Server native or object data type.
Argument:object2Character String Symbol Vector BitVector ByteVector IntVector FltVector ObjVector Structure Dictionary Directory Brick Matrix NumMatrix Integer Float Number Complex Boolean Any Analytic Information Server native or object data type.

Returns:

A Pair.
