 Fish - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fish can be found in almost all large bodies of water in either salt, brackish or fresh water, at depths ranging from just below the surface to several thousand meters.
Fish come in different sizes, from the 14 m (45 ft) whale shark to a 7 mm (just over 1/4 of an inch) long stout infantfish.
Taxonomically, fish are a paraphyletic group whose exact relationships are much debated; a common division is into the jawless fish (class Agnatha, 75 species including lampreys and hagfish), the cartilaginous fish (class Chondrichthyes, 800 species including sharks and rays), with the remainder classed as bony fish (class Osteichthyes).

 List of fish families Information
In modern programming languages, equality of lists is normally defined in terms of structural equality of the corresponding entries, except that if the lists are typed, then the list types may also be relevant.
However, it is generally assumed that elements can be inserted into a list in constant time, while access of a random element in a list requires linear time; this is to be contrasted with an array (or ''vector''), for which the time complexities are reversed.
The former is often preferred in non-tail-recursive languages, and languages in which recursion over lists is for some other reason uncomfortable.
