A list is an ordered collection of \(n\) elements.
requirements
- as list length cannot be negative
- list length cannot be \(\infty\)
- repetition matters
- order matters
additional info
- two lists are equal IFF they have
- same \(n\)
- same elements
- same order
- they are different from sets because
- order matters
- (therefore, because in/out is no longer a binary) number of entries of the same object matters
- length is finite
