VerticalList -- a type of visible self-initializing list that prints vertically

Usage:

VerticalList x
Inputs:
- x, a list
Outputs:
- a vertical list

Description

All operations on lists apply to vertical lists, since they inherit from the type VisibleList. The only difference is the way that a vertical list is displayed vertically.

i1 : a .. e

o1 = (a, b, c, d, e)

o1 : Sequence

i2 : v = VerticalList oo

o2 = {a}
     {b}
     {c}
     {d}
     {e}

o2 : VerticalList

i3 : v_1

o3 = b

o3 : Symbol

i4 : length v

o4 = 5

One may get a normal list back from a vertical list as follows.

i5 : toList v

o5 = {a, b, c, d, e}

o5 : List
