Hi Ben,
I misunderstood your problem. sigma expects a number and not a
function, as you discovered.
If I modify this function as follows, your code works because sigma_func
gets evaluated:
(define (make-polarizability-from-conductivity sigma_func omega_in)
(make polarizability
(omega omega_in)
(gamma omega_in)
(delta-epsilon (/ 1 omega_in))
(sigma (sigma_func 42))
)
)
You proably want to evaluate what you want sigma to be higher up in
make-mat-from-eps-and-sigma. Instead of calling
make-polarizability-from-conductivity and passing it a function, you
only pass a single sigma value.
Kind Regards,
Matt
