| -- **Please Note**: methods that change the list will return the list. | |
| -- This is to allow for method chaining, but please note that `ls = ls:sort()` | |
| -- does not mean that a new copy of the list is made. In-place (mutable) methods | |
| -- are marked as returning 'the list' in this documentation. | |
