Remove duplicates but keep elements in order. O(n * log n)
cycle ties a finite list into a circular one, or equivalently, the infinite repetition of the original list. It is the identity on infinite lists.
>>> cycle []
*** Exception: Prelude.cycle: empty list

>>> cycle [42]
[42,42,42,42,42,42,42,42,42,42...

>>> cycle [2, 5, 7]
[2,5,7,2,5,7,2,5,7,2,5,7...
Extract the elements after the head of a list, which must be non-empty.
>>> tail [1, 2, 3]
[2,3]

>>> tail [1]
[]

>>> tail []
*** Exception: Prelude.tail: empty list
WARNING: This function is partial. You can use case-matching or uncons instead.
Return all the elements of a list except the last one. The list must be non-empty.
>>> init [1, 2, 3]
[1,2]

>>> init [1]
[]

>>> init []
*** Exception: Prelude.init: empty list
WARNING: This function is partial. You can use reverse with case-matching or uncons instead.
reverse xs returns the elements of xs in reverse order. xs must be finite.
>>> reverse []
[]

>>> reverse [42]
[42]

>>> reverse [2,5,7]
[7,5,2]

>>> reverse [1..]
