Hi, I am creating matrices of 0s and 1s that I display in HTML-tables and somewhat surprisingly I found out that 0s are not permissible in X-expressions, while 1s are:
(require web-server/http) (response/xexpr '(html 1)) ; Fine, no trouble. (response/xexpr '(html 0)) ; Blow-up. The specific violation is the following: "response/xexpr: contract violation; Not an Xexpr. Expected a string, symbol, valid numeric entity, comment, processing instruction, or list, given 0" After some digging around, it turns out that only numbers that satisfy valid-char? are acceptable, which means "exact-nonnegative-integer whose character interpretation under UTF-8 is from the set ([#x1-#xD7FF] | [#xE000-#xFFFD] | [#x10000-#x10FFFF]), in accordance with section 2.2 of the XML 1.1 spec." First, should 0 really not be accepted? (I am not going to try and figure out the UTF-8 interpretation...) And second, is the reason that negative numbers are not acceptable that they are not under the XML spec above? This took me by surprise and means I have to put number->string in a bunch of places.
