I would like to treat a symbol as a function, and apply it to some arguments. In other words, if I did something like (define sym '+) (apply '+ '(1 2)) I would obtain the answer 3. Is there any way I can do this? The following works, but I'm wondering if it's the best way: (eval `(apply ,sym '(1 2))) A more basic question would be: is there any way I can convert from '+ to + - i.e. a symbol to a function?
