Macro-writing challenge

Name: Anonymous 2016-01-16 13:19

Write a macro check-arguments-non-nil to be used in function definitions, that would expand to assertion about every argument being non-nil.
The intended usage of this macro:

(defun foo (a b c d)
(check-arguments-non-nil)
foo-body)


This should expand to:

(defun foo (a b c d)
(assert (and (not (null a)) (not (null b)) (not (null c)) (not (null d)))
(a b c d)
"Null argument in FOO")
foo-body)


The macro must work whatever the number and names of the function parameters.

By necessity, in a hygienic macro system, it does.
Of course, feel free to request a macro nobody will ever use nor write because it is unhygienic.
