Alternatively, the list class can be appended with helpers like 'turn'
and 'segment' which can actually turn the "ring" and remove a piece

Hello,
After learning about the new class behavior, I am trying to implement a
circular type list where, for example, you can compare the nth value to
the "(n+1)th" value without worrying about going past the end of the
list. (An old approach might be to create a function that converts a
given
