One more problem

(You may need to read ahead a bit for this one. Read enough about if in Chapter 6 that you are comfortable with it if you haven't already.)

The Islamic calendar has twelve months, alternately 30 and 29 days as follows:

30 29 30 29 30 29 30 29 30 29 30 29

Fill in the framework below to complete the definition of the islam-day-of-year function. Islam-day-of-year takes two arguments, a month and a date in that month, e.g. 9 and 23 to mean the 23rd day of the 9th month, and should return the correspond­ing day of the year, 259 for the given example. You may assume that the arguments are legal values for a month and a date in that month.

; Given a legal month number (an integer between 1 and 12)

; and a legal date in that month, return the corresponding

; day in the Islamic year.

(define (islam-day-of-year month date)

(if (odd? month)

(+ ) ; odd-numbered month

(+ ) ) ) ; even-numbered month

Test your function on the following pairs of arguments:

1 1 3 1

1 30 11 30

2 1 12 1

2 29 12 29

Hand in a listing of your islam-day-of-year function, as well as a printout of an Interaction window with the results of the tests of your function indicated clearly.
