-2. Here's another implementation of the same-fringe function, in Scheme. It's taken from <http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?SameFringeProblem>. It uses thunks to delay the evaluation of code that computes the tail of a list of a tree's fringe. It also involves passing continuations as arguments. Your assignment is to fill in the blanks in the code, **and also to supply comments to the code,** to explain what every significant piece is doing. Don't forget to supply the comments, this is an important part of the assignment.

This code uses Scheme's `cond` construct. That works like this;
