Package:LISP

Creates an array of the specified DIMENSIONS. The default for INITIAL- ELEMENT depends on ELEMENT-TYPE. MAKE-ARRAY will always try to find the ‘best’ array to accommodate the element-type specified. For example on a SUN element-type (mod 1) –> bit (integer 0 10) –> unsigned-char (integer -3 10) –> signed-char si::best-array-element-type is the function doing this. It is also used by the compiler, for coercing array element types. If you are going to declare an array you should use the same element type as was used in making it. eg (setq my-array (make-array 4 :element-type ’(integer 0 10))) (the (array (integer 0 10)) my-array) When wanting to optimize references to an array you need to declare the array eg: (the (array (integer -3 10)) my-array) if ar were constructed using the (integer -3 10) element-type. You could of course have used signed-char, but since the ranges may be implementation dependent it is better to use -3 10 range. MAKE-ARRAY needs to do some calculation with the element-type if you don’t provide a primitive data-type. One way of doing this in a machine independent fashion:

(defvar *my-elt-type* #. (array-element-type (make-array 1 :element-type ’(integer -3 10))))

Then calls to (make-array n :element-type *my-elt-type*) will not have to go through a type inclusion computation. The keyword STATIC (GCL specific) if non nil, will cause the array body to be non relocatable.
