signed-byte, integer, rational,
real,
number, t
The atomic type specifier signed-byte denotes the same type as is denoted by the type specifier integer; however, the list forms of these two type specifiers have different semantics.
Abbreviating.
(signed-byte{[s | *]})
s---a positive integer.
This denotes the set of integers that can be represented in two's-complement form in a byte of s bits. This is equivalent to (integer -2^{s-1 2^{s-1}-1)}. The type signed-byte or the type (signed-byte *) is the same as the type integer.
