Lists Documentation

3-20-97: The functions (make-a-list) and (specify-list) are available for specifying lists that are to be used with other functions, such as (best-twopoints).

(make-a-list) takes one value as input: the number (N) of items in the list. It returns a list containing N numbers in sequential order, starting with 0. For example:
```
* (make-a-list 12)
(0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11) 
```
(specify-list) takes two values as input: the starting (S) and ending (E) numbers for the list. It returns a list containing E-S+1 numbers ranging from S to E. For example:
```
* (specify-list 0 11)
(0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11)

or

* (specify-list 7 20)
(7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20)
```
