Hello,
  I am trying to take a list such as ( a b c ) and make it look like:

( b c a ). 

This is done by taking the first element and making it the last. 

the code I have now is:

(cons (cdr x) (cons (car x ) nil ))

where x is my list. So for example if I set my list to: 

(a b c) 

and run my code I get:

((B C) A)

which is almost what I want, but not quite. The parens around b and c
should not be there.  Could someone please guide me in the right
direction, I am out of ideas.

Thanks ahead,
  Dirt

You want APPEND.
