;; 对于mul-interval 的参数x和y，各存在3种可能的符号搭配，它们是
;; （1）l<=u<=0 （2）l<=0<=u （3）0<=l<=u
;; 因为x和y为互相独立的变量，所以一共有3*3，9种组合
;; 简单分析可知, 除了x和y同时属于第2种情况的组合需要进一步比较确定，
;; 其他组合的计算中，lower-bound和upper-bound由哪些端点计算产生
;; 均可由自变量interval两端的符号直接决定。
;; 比如当x属于(2), y属于(3)时
;; mul-interval x y 的lower-bound显然等于l(x)*u(y)
(define (mul-interval x y)
(let ((l-x (lower-bound x))
(u-x (upper-bound x))
(l-y (lower-bound y))
(u-y (upper-bound y)))

((< u-y 0) (make-interval (* u-x l-y) (* l-x u-y)))
(else (make-interval (* u-x l-y) (* u-x u-y)))))
