# bar
|
||
# The terms foobar (/ˈfuːbɑːr/), or foo and others are used as metasyntactic
|
||
# variables and placeholder names
|
||
|
||
# The etymology of foobar is generally traced
|
||
# to the World War II military slang FUBAR,
|
||
# which evolved through being bowdlerised to foobar
|
||
|
||
# In this Scheme sample, foobar is used to illustrate the name of a function:
|
||
(define foobar
|
||
(lambda (x)
|
||
(display x)))
|
||
(foobar "Hello World!")
