<p>An alternative form of recursive definition is the following. 
<a name="index-g_t_0040code_007bmapcur_007d-339"></a>
     <dl>
<dt><em>T27</em><dd>[[<code>mapcur</code>]] <var>p</var> = <code>((nil,nil),((nil,nil),(</code><var>p</var><code>,nil)))</code>
</dl>

<p class="noindent">This form is convenient for applications that cause themselves to be
<a name="index-recursion-340"></a>applied recursively to a list of arguments. It has this semantics.

     <dl>
<dt><em>P34</em><dd>([[<code>mapcur</code>]] <var>p</var>) <var>x</var> =
[[<code>map meta</code>]] [[<code>distribute</code>]] ([[<code>field</code>]] <var>p</var>) <var>x</var>
