The concept of the list is a better understanding with the familiarization of data structure that classifies and organizes the information in chronological order. Entity groups, dimensional arrays, queues, and stacks represent the special types of lists. This chapter outlines first-in-first-out and last-in-first-out processing techniques, and also explains the importance of list making in modern practices. It examines the LISP, a programming language that explains the power of the list.

Keywords:   data structure, lists, LISP, entity groups, dimensional arrays, queues, stacks
