USER(53): '(how are you today ?)   ; A list of symbols. 
(HOW ARE YOU TODAY ?) 
USER(54): '(1 + 2 * x)             ; A list of symbols and numbers. 
(1 + 2 * X) 
USER(55): '(pair (2 3))            ; A list containing 'pair and '(2 3). 
(pair (2 3)) 
Notice that the list (pair (2 3)) has length 2:
 
				
					| 
USER(56): (recursive-list-length '(pair (2 3)))
2
 |   
Notice also the result of applying accessors:
USER(57): (first '(pair (2 3)))
PAIR
USER(58): (rest '(pair (2 3)))
((2 3))
 Lists containing other lists as members are difficult to understand for 
beginners. Make sure you understand the above example.
