Detailed Description

The pair (cons) type.

Contrary to popular belief, Scheme does not actually have a list type.

Instead there is a pair object composed two objects, the car and cdr. A list can be created by storing values in the car and a pointer to the rest of the list in cdr. A NULL in the cdr indicates the end of a list.
