Methods

Methods are GOO's code objects. Methods can optionally be added to generics.
<met> (<fun>) C

met-app? (x|<met> args|<lst> => <log>) G

determines whether x is applicable when called with args.

DM (DM ,name ,sig ,@body) S

first ensures that a generic exists named ,name and with a minimally congruent to signature ,sig and then adds a method with signature ,sig and body ,@body (cf., Dylan's DEFINE METHOD).

SUP (SUP ,@args) S

calls next most applicable method. N.B., all arguments must be supplied.

(APP-SUP ,@args) S

applies next most applicable method. N.B., all arguments must be supplied.

Methods

`<met>`	`(<fun>)`	`C`
`met-app?`	`(x\|<met> args\|<lst> => <log>)`	`G`
	determines whether `x` is applicable when called with `args`.
`DM`	`(DM ,name ,sig ,@body)`	`S`
	first ensures that a generic exists named ,name and with a minimally congruent to signature `,sig` and then adds a method with signature `,sig` and body `,@body` (cf., Dylan's `DEFINE METHOD`).
`SUP`	`(SUP ,@args)`	`S`
	calls next most applicable method. N.B., all arguments must be supplied.
	`(APP-SUP ,@args)`	`S`
	applies next most applicable method. N.B., all arguments must be supplied.
