Executing Multiple Statements

Often, one wishes to execute multiple function calls in order.

(PROGN < statement1> ... < statementn> )

will execute < statement1> through < statementn> in order; the value of PROGN is the value of < statementn> .

Multiple statements are automatically executed at the ``top level'' of a function or within a COND clause; this is sometimes referred to as an implicit PROGN.

(PROG1 < statement1> ... < statementn> )

will execute < statement1> through < statementn> in order; the value of PROG1 is the value of < statement1> .
