コード

function stringfy(x) {
    if (is_null(x)) {
        return "null";
    }
    if (is_pair(x)) {
        return "[" + stringfy(head(x)) + ", " + stringfy(tail(x)) + "]";
    }
    return x.toString();
}

    return z[0];
}

    return args.length === 0 ?
        null :
        pair(args[0], list(...args.slice(1)));

const x = list(1, 2, 3);
const y = list(4, 5, 6);

display('[1, [2, [3, [4, [5, [6, null]]]]]]');
