[Scheme-reports] 1.3.5 Naming conventions



It's said that a predicate is a procedure that returns #t or #f.
Perhaps it would be better as "an effect-free procedure that returns #t
or #f".  The report does not contain any effectful predicates, but it
does set up a vocabulary for schemers to use, and predicates should not
have visible effects.  As you like, though.
