Final SRFI 225: Dictionaries

[Arthur A. Gleckler]

Scheme Request for Implementation 225,
"Dictionaries,"
by John Cowan (spec) and Arvydas Silanskas (implementation),
has gone into final status.

The document and an archive of the discussion are available at
<https://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-225/>.

Here's the abstract:

maps keys to values without the caller needing to know exactly what
the type of the object is. Such an object is called a dictionary or
