Racket: change dotted pair to list
- by user2963128
I have a program that recursively calls a hashtable and prints out data from it.
Unfortunately my hashtable seems to be saving data as dotted pairs so when I call the hashtable I get an error saying that there is no data for it because its tryign to search the hashtable for a dotted pair instead of a list.
Is there an easy way to make the dotted pair into a regular list?
IE im getting
'("was" . "beginning") instead of '("was" "beginning")
Is there a way to change this without re-writing how my hashtable store stuff?
im using the let function to set a variable to this and then calling another function based on this variable
(let ((data ( list-ref(hash-ref Ngram-table key) (random (length (hash-ref Ngram-table key))))))
is there a way to make the value stored in data just a list like this '("var1" "var2") instead of a dotted pair?
edit: im getting dotted pairs because im using let to set data to the part of the hashtable's key and one of the elements in that hash.
