In SICP exercise 2.26 using DrScheme, why does cons return a list, instead of a pair of lists?

Question

In SICP exercise 2.26, this Scheme code is given:

(define x (list 1 2 3))
(define y (list 4 5 6))

Then this cons call is given:

<         


        

Answer 1

try (list x y) I'm sure it works on common lisp, I don't know about Scheme
