-;; the equality-testing function as an argument. It also defines a
-;; traditional "case" macro that tests using "=" and variants that
-;; test for regular expressions and class membership.

-(defmacro fcase
- "Generic switch/case macro. 'fcase' is short for 'function case'.
-
- The 'compare-fn' is a fn of two arguments.
-
- The 'test-expr-clauses' are value-expression pairs without
- surrounding parentheses, like in Clojure's 'cond'.
-
- The 'case-value' is evaluated once and cached. Then, 'compare-fn'
- is called once for each clause, with the clause's test value as its
- first argument and 'case-value' as its second argument. If
- 'compare-fn' returns logical true, the clause's expression is
- evaluated and returned. If 'compare-fn' returns false/nil, we go to
- the next test value.
-
- If 'test-expr-clauses' contains an odd number of items, the last
- item is the default expression evaluated if no case-value matches.
- If there is no default expression and no case-value matches, fcase
- returns nil.
-
- See specific forms of this macro in 'case' and 're-case'.
-
- The test expressions in 'fcase' are always evaluated linearly, in
- order. For a large number of case expressions it may be more
- efficient to use a hash lookup."
