In this video, I introduce you to the basics of LISP lists. Specifically, we focus on :

How to create a list using the list and cons functions.
How to assign a list to a variable.
How to manipulate lists using car, cdr, cons, member, append, reverse.
How to compare lists for equality using the equal predicate function.
How to test for an empty list using the null predicate function.
How to test to see if something is a list using the listp predicate function.

Thanks for the effort. Why aren't you using a REPL in your demo instead of repeatedly invoking write?

So lisp is good for making a grocery list app or a TODO list that has lightweight functions.
