As a novice to Franz Lisp, I have the following question:

As you all might well know, Franz Lisp is a dynamic binding langauge, while
Scheme is not. Therefore, the following code is unwriteable in Franz Lisp:

(Scheme):

(define (func param)
 (lambda (x) (param x)))

[This function accepts a parameter which is also a function, and returns yet
another function which 'apply's param on x.]

Am I right? And if I am not, how is it done then?


Thanks,
   Misha.
