Problem$^a$ 2.   The main purpose of this exercise is to develop the function list->oos. It consumes a list of basic event symbols ('on, 'off, 'steady); its result is an oos structure that represents how many times 'on, 'steady, and 'off, respectively, occur in the given list.

(define-struct oos (on steady off))
;; A OOS is: 
;; -- (make-oos NaturalNumber NaturalNumber NaturalNumber)

Answer the following questions:

1. Name the constructor, predicate, and selectors that the structure definition for oos introduces.

   Solution

   ;; [PT 2: 1 if they mention fewer and no junk]
   make-oos
   oos?
   oos-on oos-steady oos-off 
   

2. Provide a template for a function that consumes an OOS structure.

   Solution

   ;; [PT 1, for all selector expressions]
   ;; program: OOS -> ???
   (define (program an-oos)
     ... (oos-on an-oos)   
     ... (oos-steady an-oos)
     ... (oos-off an-oos) ...)
