Lisptalk "Concurrent Programming Language Lisptalk", C. Li, SIGPLAN Notices 234:71-80 Apr 1988. LispView CLOS based windowing system on OpenWindows. list A data structure holding many values, possibly of different types, which is usually accessed sequentially, working from the head to the end of the tail - an "ordered list". This contrasts with a one-dimensional array, any element of which can be accessed equally quickly. Lists are often stored using a cell and pointer arrangement where each value is stored in a cell along with an associated pointer to the next cell. A special pointer, e. g. zero, marks the end of the list. This is known as a singly "linked list". A doubly linked list has pointers from each cell to both next and previous cells. An unordered list is a set.
