Functions for List Manipulation

• Member

  • Looks for an occurrence of a specific item in a list
  • Returns that item and everything after if it finds it
  • Unlike Assoc, you need to know the entire item to search for it
  • Returns a list, even if the item you are searching for is the last item in the list

• Reverse

  • Reverse the order of a list
  • Only works on the first level of the list if the list is a list of lists

• Last

  • Grabs the last item from a list
  • Just like (car), but grabs the last item instead of the first
