Notes

  1. 1.

    Details on the implementation of lists are outside of the scope of this course. It is explained in books related to data structures (e.g. [1] and [4]). Look for topics on linked lists and linked structures.

  2. 2.

    Algorithms for garbage collection are explained in references and books on data structures. See e.g. the classical book of Aho et al. [1]. The first algorithm for garbage collection was implemented by McCarthy for Lisp and is described in [12].
