I understand it basically setting a value at a certain place like u[5] = 1000
in c like languages. nth returns a list starting from count and set evaluates
then sets the value of variable. But, not sure why this is actually

(later 'var . prg) -> varExecutes prg in a pipe'ed child process. The

Note that instead of 'T' you may also return any non-NIL value, e.g. the
