3.4.2 Class Slots
Slots whose allocation is per-class rather than per-instance can be referenced and set without needing to specify any particular instance.

If there is no such slot with #:class or #:each-subclassallocation, class-slot-ref calls the slot-missing generic function with arguments class and slot-name. Otherwise, if the slot value is unbound, class-slot-ref calls theslot-missing generic function, with the same arguments.
| class-slot-set! class slot-name value | procedure |
|---|

If there is no such slot with #:class or #:each-subclassallocation, class-slot-ref calls the slot-missing generic function with arguments class and slot-name.
