dec
(
expression )
Factor and expression yield any kind of list
.
The dec
function returns true
if and only if its arguments are in a strictly decreasing sequence. That is, every element in the list must be less than the elements preceding it, and greater than the elements following it. The elements are compared as if by the >
operator.
This is the infinite-arity version of the >
operator.
