<p>Use the <code class="code">@result{}</code> command to indicate the result of
evaluating an expression.
</p>
<p>The <code class="code">@result{}</code> command is displayed as &lsquo;<samp class="samp">&rArr;</samp>&rsquo;,
either a double stemmed arrow or (when that is not available) the
ASCII sequence &lsquo;<samp class="samp">=&gt;</samp>&rsquo;.
</p>
<p>Thus, the following,
</p>
<div class="example lisp">
<pre class="lisp-preformatted">(cdr '(1 2 3))
&rArr; (2 3)
</pre></div>
<p>may be read as &ldquo;<code class="code">(cdr '(1 2 3))</code> evaluates to <code class="code">(2 3)</code>&rdquo;.
