Suppose I defined a list in scheme : (list (list 1 2) (list 3 4) (list 5 6))
Is the top-level the first sublist?
The top-level list in the example is the list that contains as its three elements
(1 2) (3 4) (5 6). The top-level is not(1 2)– the first sublist: it’s the list that contains that sublist. Given that all the list elements in the example are sublists, the top level list in((1 2) (3 4) (5 6))is seen as the left-most and right-most parenthesis.
