Seven-Segment Devices

We ignore the restriction on 16-bit integers and write a program to output any number of digits. The output is a list of numbers, one for each digit. The correspondence of input digit to output number can be pre-computed:
0: 2^0 + 2^2 + 2^3 + 2^4 + 2^5 + 2^6 = 125 1: 2^4 + 2^6 = 80 2: 2^0 + 2^1 + 2^2 + 2^4 + 2^5 = 55 3: 2^0 + 2^1 + 2^2 + 2^4 + 2^6 = 87 4: 2^1 + 2^3 + 2^4 + 2^6 = 90 5: 2^0 + 2^1 + 2^2 + 2^3 + 2^6 = 79 6: 2^0 + 2^1 + 2^2 + 2^3 + 2^5 + 2^6 = 111 7: 2^2 + 2^4 + 2^6 = 84 8: 2^0 + 2^1 + 2^2 + 2^3 + 2^4 + 2^5 + 2^6 = 127 9: 2^0 + 2^1 + 2^2 + 2^3 + 2^4 + 2^6 = 95
Of course, I wrote a program to make that computation:
(define (digit . xs)
(let loop ((xs xs) (sum 0))
(if (null? xs) sum
(loop (cdr xs) (+ sum (expt 2 (car xs)))))))
> (digit 0 2 3 4 5 6) ; 0 125 > (digit 4 6) ; 1 80 > (digit 0 1 2 4 5) ; 2 55 > (digit 0 1 2 4 6) ; 3 87 > (digit 1 3 4 6) ; 4 90 > (digit 0 1 2 3 6) ; 5 79 > (digit 0 1 2 3 5 6) ; 6 111 > (digit 2 4 6) ; 7 84 > (digit 0 1 2 3 4 5 6) ; 8 127 > (digit 0 1 2 3 4 6) ; 9 95
Then it’s easy to solve Bentley’s task:
(define (bentley n)
(let ((ds (vector 125 80 55 87 90 79 111 84 127 95)))
(map (lambda (d) (vector-ref ds d)) (digits n))))
> (bentley 3141592654) (87 80 90 80 79 95 55 111 79 90)
