3.75 Exercise 3.75

If the signal that sign-change-detector should be run on is meant to contain the values derived from averaging the two previous values of the input stream, then we must keep track of the last actual value and the last computed average both – the last value in order to compute the next average, and the last average in order to compute whether there was a zero crossing.

(define (make-zero-crossings input-stream last-value last-average)
  (let ((avpt (/ (+ (stream-car input-stream) last-value) 2)))
    (cons-stream (sign-change-detector avpt last-average)
                 (make-zero-crossings (stream-cdr input-stream)
                                      (stream-car input-stream)
                                      avpt))))
