<p>
Lists and the values they contain can be pattern matched on in case
expressions.
</p>
<p>
List patterns match on specific lengths of lists. The pattern <code>[]</code>
matches an empty list, and the pattern <code>[_]</code> matches a list with
one element. They will not match on lists with other lengths.
</p>
<p>
The spread pattern <code>..</code> can be used to match the rest of the list.
The pattern <code>[1, ..]</code> matches any list that starts with
<code>1</code>. The pattern <code>[_, _, ..]</code> matches any list that has
at least two elements.
