member item list &key key test test-not ⇒ tail
member-if predicate list &key key ⇒ tail
member-if-not predicate list &key key ⇒ tail
| item | an object. |
| list | a proper list. |
| predicate | a designator for a function of one argument that returns a generalized boolean. |
| test | a designator for a function of two arguments that returns a generalized boolean. |
| test-not | a designator for a function of two arguments that returns a generalized boolean. |
| key | a designator for a function of one argument, or nil. |
| tail | a list. |
member, member-if, and member-if-not each search list for item or for a top-level element that satisfies the test. The argument to the predicate function is an element of list.
If some element satisfies the test, the tail of list beginning with this element is returned; otherwise nil is returned.
list is searched on the top level only.
(member 2 '(1 2 3)) ⇒ (2 3)
(member 2 '((1 . 2) (3 . 4)) :test-not #'= :key #'cdr) ⇒ ((3 . 4))
(member 'e '(a b c d)) ⇒ NIL
(member-if #'listp '(a b nil c d)) ⇒ (NIL C D)
(member-if #'numberp '(a #\Space 5/3 foo)) ⇒ (5/3 FOO)
(member-if-not #'zerop
'(3 6 9 11 . 12)
:key #'(lambda (x) (mod x 3))) ⇒ (11 . 12)
Should be prepared to signal an error of type type-error if list is not a proper list.

The :test-not parameter is deprecated.
The function member-if-not is deprecated.
In the following
(member 'a '(g (a y) c a d e a f)) ⇒ (A D E A F)
the value returned by member is identical to the portion
of the list beginning with a. Thus rplaca on the
result of member can be used to alter the part of the list
where a was found (assuming a check has been made that member
did not return nil).
