List command; for linear lists only, adds the specified value to the end of a linear list. This differs from the add command, which adds a value to a sorted list according to the list's order.
If you are working with unsorted lists, the append() method is faster than add().
If you use append() or setAt() on a sorted list, the list becomes unsorted and subsequent use of [[[add]]() will place the new values at the end of the list.
