Selecting some lists from a list of lists












1















I would like to have some lists from a list of lists under a certain condition. For example:



`((a w) (e w))`


from



`((a w) (e w) (i u) (o u))`


where the condition is to have 'w in the second position.



My code



(filter (andmap (equal? (cdr lst) 'w)) 'lst)



with



(define lst '((a w) (e w) (i u) (o u)))



is not working. What am I doing wrong?






scheme nested-lists

    Start with writing a predicate that works with one list element – that is, a procedure p such that (p '(a w)) is #t and (p '(i u)) is #f. Then use that. (andmap is of no use here.)

You should not quote the list: 'lst is not the same as lst. And to access the second element, use second (if that's not defined, use cadr instead). With cdr you get the rest of the list (which is another list), not its second element. Oh, and filter expects a lambda as its first argument, not andmap. This is what I mean:



(define lst '((a w) (e w) (i u) (o u)))

(filter (lambda (sl) (equal? (second sl) 'w))

        lst)

=> '((a w) (e w))
