Re: How to delete the last element of a SKILL list

the easiest way to do this is to build the list in the other
order. ask yourself why is the list in the order it is in, and
can it be built in the other order.

for example if you use push to add elements to a list
then you can use pop to pop them off. this is
very fast and memory efficient.

but in general to remove any element from a list with the
remove function.

x = (list 1 2 3 4 5 6 7)

now x has value (1 2 3 4 5 6 7)

if you want to remove 4 from x
(remove 4 x)

and x has value (1 2 3 5 6 7)
