write (list 1 2))
(terpri)
(write (list 'a 'b))
(terpri)
(write (list 1 nil))
(terpri)
(write (list 1 2 3))
(terpri)
(write (list 'a 'b 'c))
(terpri)
(write (list 3 4 'a (car '(b . c)) (* 4 -2)))
(terpri)
(write (list (list 'a 'b) (list 'c 'd 'e)))

When you execute the code, it returns the following result −

(1 2)
(A B)
(1 NIL)
(1 2 3)
(A B C)
(3 4 A B -8)
((A B) (C D E))
