<p>The <code class="code">(rnrs control (6))</code> library provides syntactic forms useful
for constructing conditional expressions and controlling the flow of
execution.

<dt class="deffn" id="index-when-2"><span class="category-def">Scheme Syntax: </span><span><strong class="def-name">when</strong> <var class="def-var-arguments">test expression1 expression2 ...</var><a class="copiable-link" href="#index-when-2"> &para;</a></span></dt>

<dd><p>The <code class="code">when</code> form is evaluated by evaluating the specified <var class="var">test</var>
expression; if the result is a true value, the <var class="var">expression</var>s that
follow it are evaluated in order, and the value of the final
<var class="var">expression</var> becomes the value of the entire <code class="code">when</code> expression.
</p>
<p>The <code class="code">unless</code> form behaves similarly, with the exception that the
specified <var class="var">expression</var>s are only evaluated if the value of
<var class="var">test</var> is false.
