07:05:23 (set! x (+ x 1)) doesn't seem to work. 07:06:05 "seem"? 07:06:27 Okay, I'm trying to make a counting program. 07:06:31 to me, it seemed quite simple. 07:06:36 lisppaste: url 07:06:36 To use the lisppaste bot, visit http://paste.lisp.org/new/scheme and enter your paste. 07:07:35 djanatyn pasted "i am noob." at http://paste.lisp.org/display/94928 07:07:54 "while"??
