Hi Mike,

I don't have a copy of the book to hand, but it seems like lists
shouldn't show up on page 10. Could you provide a link to the web
version?

In HtDP, you'll encounter lists first in the form

(cons 1 (cons 2 (cons 3 empty)))

which makes explicit the structure of the list. But, again, I didn't
think such creatures showed up so soon.

Cheers,
Matt
