[CM] [Snd] Guile newbie help?

[vze26m98]

OK, in spite of all the many useful examples in the distribution and
some reading of the Guile documents, this dummy can't get the following
to work in the listener:

(assuming a ">" prompt)

>(define next 0)
>(define prev 0)
>(define sum 0)
>(define rdr (make-sample-reader 0))

>(while (not (sample-reader-at-end? rdr)) (set! next (rdr)) (set! sum (+
sum (- next prev))) (set! prev next))

...or in a more readable form:

(while (not (sample-reader-at-end? rdr))
       (set! next (rdr))
       (set! sum (+ sum (- next prev)))
       (set! prev next))

I can take all these statements out of the while loop and I believe they
work correctly (or give results other than 0.0).

Thanks, Charles
