- DESCRIPTION
- Lreplace returns a new list formed by replacing one or more
- elements of list with the element arguments. First gives
- the index in list of the first element to be replaced. If
- first is less than zero then it refers to the first element
- of list; the element indicated by first must exist in the
- list. Last gives the index in list of the last element to
- be replaced; it must be greater than or equal to first.
- Last may be end (or any abbreviation of it) to indicate that
- all elements between first and the end of the list should be
- replaced. The element arguments specify zero or more new
- arguments to be added to the list in place of those that
- were deleted. Each element argument will become a separate
- element of the list. If no element arguments are specified,
- then the elements between first and last are simply deleted.
