How do we make a new list with a change other than the same slice and
concatenation we use with tuples?
alist[:i] + [value] + alist[i+1:]
I mean as an expression, of course we can split it over two statements:
newlist = alist[:]
newlist[i] = value
which is fine, but it does lose the expressiveness of an expression :-)
