#### 9.1.1 Condition Types

Figure 9–1 lists the standardized condition types. Additional condition types can be defined by using define-condition.

All condition types are subtypes of type condition. That is,

     (typep c 'condition) ⇒  true

if and only if c is a condition.

Implementations must define all specified subtype relationships. Except where noted, all subtype relationships indicated in this document are not mutually exclusive. A condition inherits the structure of its supertypes.

The metaclass of the class condition is not specified. Names of condition types may be used to specify supertype relationships in define-condition, but the consequences are not specified if an attempt is made to use a condition type as a superclass in a defclass form.

Figure 9–2 shows operators that define condition types and creating conditions.

Figure 9–3 shows operators that read the value of condition slots.
