the unit’s body definitions and expressions are evaluated in order; in

the case of a definition, evaluation sets the value of the

|

corresponding variable(s). Finally, the result of the last expression

in the unit is the result of the <span class="RktSym"><a href="invokingunits.html#%28form._%28%28lib._racket%2Funit..rkt%29._invoke-unit%29%29" class="RktStxLink" data-pltdoc="x">invoke-unit</a></span> expression.</p><p>Each supplied <span class="RktVar">tagged-sig-spec</span> takes bindings from the

The unit need not declare an import for every provided

|
<span class="RktVar">tagged-sig-spec</span>, but one <span class="RktVar">tagged-sig-spec</span> must be
|
||
|
|
provided for each declared import of the unit. For each variable
|
||
|
|
identifier in each provided <span class="RktVar">tagged-sig-spec</span>, the value of the
|
||
|
|
identifier’s binding in the surrounding context is used for the

corresponding import in the invoked unit.</p><p><div class="SIntrapara"><blockquote class="SVInsetFlow"><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" class="boxed RBoxed"><tr><td><blockquote class="SubFlow"><div class="RBackgroundLabel SIEHidden"><div class="RBackgroundLabelInner"><p>syntax</p></div></div><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" class="RktBlk RForeground"><tr><td><span class="RktPn">(</span><a name="(form._((lib._racket/unit..rkt)._define-values/invoke-unit))"></a><span title="Provided from: racket/unit, racket | Package: base"><span class="RktSym"><a href="invokingunits.html#%28form._%28%28lib._racket%2Funit..rkt%29._define-values%2Finvoke-unit%29%29" class="RktStxDef RktStxLink" data-pltdoc="x">define-values/invoke-unit</a></span></span><span class="hspace"> </span><span class="RktVar">unit-expr</span></td></tr><tr><td><span class="hspace"> </span><span class="RktPn">(</span><span class="RktSym"><a href="creatingunits.html#%28form._%28%28lib._racket%2Funit..rkt%29._import%29%29" class="RktStxLink" data-pltdoc="x">import</a></span><span class="hspace"> </span><span class="RktVar">tagged-sig-spec</span><span class="hspace"> </span><span class="RktMeta">...</span><span class="RktPn">)</span></td></tr><tr><td><span class="hspace"> </span><span class="RktPn">(</span><span class="RktSym"><a href="creatingunits.html#%28form._%28%28lib._racket%2Funit..rkt%29._export%29%29" class="RktStxLink" data-pltdoc="x">export</a></span><span class="hspace"> </span><span class="RktVar">tagged-sig-spec</span><span class="hspace"> </span><span class="RktMeta">...</span><span class="RktPn">)</span><span class="RktPn">)</span></td></tr></table></blockquote></td></tr></table></blockquote></div><div class="SIntrapara">Like <span class="RktSym"><a href="invokingunits.html#%28form._%28%28lib._racket%2Funit..rkt%29._invoke-unit%29%29" class="RktStxLink" data-pltdoc="x">invoke-unit</a></span>, but the values of the unit’s exports are
