# Case-Lambda Library
The `(scheme case-lambda)` library exports the `case-lambda` syntax.
For more information see the [R<sup>7</sup>RS Scheme Specification](../../r7rs.pdf).
- [`case-lambda`](#case-lambda)
#case-lambda
(case-lambda {clause} ...)
Syntax: Each `{clause}` is of the form `({formals} {body})`, where `{formals}` and `{body}` have the same syntax as in a lambda expression.
Semantics: A `case-lambda` expression evaluates to a procedure that accepts a variable number of arguments and is lexically scoped in the same manner as a procedure resulting from a lambda expression.
