# Additional basic list exercises


# D. Given a list of numbers, return a list where
# all adjacent == elements have been reduced to a single element,
# so [1, 2, 2, 3] returns [1, 2, 3]. You may create a new list or
# modify the passed in list.
def remove_adjacent(nums):
    # +++your code here+++
    return


# E. Given two lists sorted in increasing order, create and return a merged
# list of all the elements in sorted order. You may modify the passed in lists.
# Ideally, the solution should work in "linear" time, making a single
# pass of both lists.
def list_merge(list1, list2):
    # +++your code here+++
    return


# Simple provided test() function used in main() to print
# what each function returns vs. what it's supposed to return.

        prefix = '  X '
    print('{p} got: {g}; expected: {e}'.format(p=prefix, g=got, e=expected))
