10.3 Exercises with ‘yank’ and ‘nthcdr’
=======================================
• Using ‘C-h v’ (‘describe-variable’), look at the value of your kill
ring. Add several items to your kill ring; look at its value
again. Using ‘M-y’ (‘yank-pop)’, move all the way around the kill
ring. How many items were in your kill ring? Find the value of
‘kill-ring-max’. Was your kill ring full, or could you have kept
more blocks of text within it?
• Using ‘nthcdr’ and ‘car’, construct a series of expressions to
return the first, second, third, and fourth elements of a list.
