Is the identity function pre-defined in Scheme?
309
Identity functions are mostly used to return the exact value of the arguments unchanged in a function. An identity function should not be confused with either a null function or an empty function. Here are the important properties of an identity function: The identity function is a real-valued linear function.
The identity function is a function which returns the same value, which was used as its argument. It is also called an identity relation or identity map or identity transformation. If f is a function, then identity relation for argument x is represented as f(x) = x, for all values of x.
An identity function, in the context of the code in your question, is simply a function that returns the same argument passed to it : In math you can denote it as: f(x) = x.
struct identity; (since C++20) std::identity is a function object type whose operator() returns its argument unchanged.
Yes, but it's called values. Actually, that's usually used for multiple values, so it's a generalized multiple-arity identity function.

In DrRacket I know that identity works. For example, (identity 12) => 12
