Hello,
I'm not sure what is considered a "type". I need to identify the several types within a problem.

Example:
"There are products (name and code) and vans (brand and code) A van take a product to X. Vans are atributed to products by order of arrival. The user can: add a product, add a van, see wich vans are taking products and see empty vans."

Now I would say the types are:

PRODUCT
VAN

However there will need to be a way to keep the information that a van is taking some product.

In implementation this could be a Lisp List like (van_object product_object). Let's call this a "WorkList". Is this a "type"?

Are those kind of "containers" normally types? If I need to keep a list of Vans, is that a type?

Thanks.
