- * This file defines four types of data structures:
+ * This file defines five types of data structures: singly-linked lists,
  * lists, simple queues, tail queues, and circular queues.
  *
+ * A singly-linked list is headed by a single forward pointer. The
+ * elements are singly linked for minimum space and pointer manipulation
+ * overhead at the expense of O(n) removal for arbitrary elements. New
+ * elements can be added to the list after an existing element or at the
+ * head of the list.  Elements being removed from the head of the list
+ * should use the explicit macro for this purpose for optimum
+ * efficiency. A singly-linked list may only be traversed in the forward
+ * direction.  Singly-linked lists are ideal for applications with large
+ * datasets and few or no removals or for implementing a LIFO queue.
+ *
  * A list is headed by a single forward pointer (or an array of forward
  * pointers for a hash table header). The elements are doubly linked
  * so that an arbitrary element can be removed without a need to
