[Scheme-reports] Question regarding R7RS draft 8 regarding section 1.3.3 Entry format

[ノートン ジョーセフ ウェイ ン <norton@x>]

Hello.

During my review of R7RS, I have felt that it would be friendlier to the reader if explicit return types for all procedures were added as part of the standard entry format.

For example ...

(number? obj) -> boolean
(max x1 x2 …) -> x
(inexact z) -> z
(exact z) -> z
  :
  :

I realize this information is included in the english description for each procedure.

Has this type of change been considered before (or not)?  I'm new to this mailing list so I apologise if this has been discussed before.

regards,

Joe N.
