Type predicateDescription
boolean?boolean

complex?complex number
eof-object?end-of-file object
input-port?input port
integer?integer
list?list (use cheap-list? for faster processing)
null?null
number?number
output-port?output port
pair?pair
port?port
procedure?procedure
rational?rational number
real?real number
string?string
symbol?symbol
vector?vector

R5RS secondary predicates

Secondary predicates are only applicable to specific expressions (for example, to numbers). They will throw a type error when applied to expressions they are not intended for. The predicates here are part of the Scheme standard R5RS.
