gollark: OH BEE, it still errors.
gollark: I see. So I should `car`ify it? Fascinating.
gollark: ```scheme(define metagollariosity (lambda (x y z) (define opponent-next-move (z y x z)) (display "about to be gollarious\n") (display "simulating...\n") (write z) (define simulate (lambda (n) (z (cons n y) (cons opponent-next-move x) z)) (define if-defect (simulate 1)) (write "simulated to depth 1") (define if-cooperate (simulate 0)) (write if-cooperate) (if (> (prisond 1 if-defect) (prisond 0 if-cooperate)) 1 0))))```Ignore all the `write`s, they are for debugging.
gollark: It's an `if` which should return only 0 or 1.
gollark: The last thing in a lambda is what gets returned, right?
