-As a suggestion, I'd recommend implementing them in the order listed above, starting with **searchlist()** and then **obtain()**. By doing this, you get to review a bit from the previous weeks (**searchlist()**) and then continue with base functionality (**obtain()**), which will help you in your implementation of the other functions.+As a suggestion, I'd recommend implementing them in the order listed above, starting with **append()** and then **searchlist()**.

 An important perspective to keep when implementing these list functions is to be mindful of what functionality can be a unit of something else. Do not reinvent the wheel- utilize functions you've written- it will shorten your code, and reduce the chance of error. Plus, that IS the intent.. to have each function be specific and focused on its particular task; to do one thing, and do that one thing extremely well. We can then use them as base units to build more sophisticated functionality. An important perspective to keep when implementing these list functions is to be mindful of what functionality can be a unit of something else.

-In this project, **searchlist()** and **obtain()** are those basic operations, where **rmlist()** and **swapnode()** can be build using various functions you'll be writing in this project and in previous projects.+In this project, **append()** can be considered that basic operation, where **cplist()** can be built using **append()** (along with any other list/node functions from this and previous projects).

-  * **rm.c**       - which will handle clearing the list +  * **cp.c**       - which will house the list copy function
   * **search.c**   - which will house the list search function   * **search.c**   - which will house the list search function
-  * **swap.c**     - which will handle swapping two nodes within a list+  * **displayb.c** - which will handle displaying the list backwards 
 +  * **compare.c**  - which will handle comparing two lists for equality
