2 Converting from loop to Loopless style

In this chapter, you'll find several examples of loop to Loopless conversion. Some design rationales and notes about (what I consider to be) good style are included.

• Alists and Plists: How to process alists (both types) and plists elegantly and uniformly.
• COLLECTING/WITH-COLLECTORS: Easy and efficient accumulation of values into one or multiple lists.
• FOR* Examples: for* lets you use loop's ``for-as-arithmetic'' and ``for-as-equals'' anywhere.
• Trivial Operators: Examples for while*, dovector, and other intuitive operators.
• Advanced Examples: Combining several Loopless utilities to tackle more complex scenarios.
