 	Some other Scheme details:
 
 	*	`#t` is true and `#f` is false
+	*	`(lambda () ...)` constructs a thunk
+	*	there is no difference in meaning between `[...]` and `(...)`; we just sometimes use the square brackets for clarity
 	*	`'(1 . 2)` and `(cons 1 2)` are pairs (the same pair)
 	*	`(list)` and `'()` both evaluate to the empty list
 	*	`(null? lst)` tests whether `lst` is the empty list
 	*	non-empty lists are implemented as pairs whose second member is a list
-	*	`'() '(1) '(1 2) '(1 2 3) are all lists
-	*	`(list)` `(list1)` `(list 1 2)` `(list 1 2 3)` are the same lists
-	*	`'(1 2 3)` and `(cons 1 '(2 3))` are pairs that are also lists (the same list)
+	*	`'()` `'(1)` `'(1 2)` `'(1 2 3)` are all lists
+	*	`(list)` `(list 1)` `(list 1 2)` `(list 1 2 3)` are the same lists
+	*	`'(1 2 3)` and `(cons 1 '(2 3))` are both pairs and lists (the same list)
 	*	`(pair? lst)` tests whether `lst` is a pair; if `lst` is a non-empty list, it will also pass this test; if `lst` fails this test, it may be because `lst` is the empty list, or because it's not a list or pair at all
 	*	`(car lst)` extracts the first member of a pair / head of a list
 	*	`(cdr lst)` extracts the second member of a pair / tail of a list
-	*	`(lambda () ...)` constructs a thunk
 
 	Here is the implementation:
