Implement code generation for `let` bindings. #54

Closed hawkw closed 9 years ago

hawkw commented 9 years ago

Once Seax Scheme compiles code with let bindings and some basic control flow (#53), I'll feel comfortable releasing Scheme dev preview v0.2.0.

This shouldn't be hard now that it handles lambda expressions (#65); in the SECD machine, a let is basically just a boring lambda that doesn't return anything.

Lambda, the ultimate variable binding.
