Explanation of Solution
Development place of LISP (LISt Processing)
LISP was developed by John McCarthy in 1958 at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology).
John McCarthy from MIT joined at the IBM Information Research Department for a summer position in 1958. He wanted to find the language requirements for doing symbolic computations.
The initial version of LISP (LISt Processing) language was called pure LISP because it was purely a functional language.
- John McCarthy designed LISP mainly as a programming language where all the computations were carried out by applying functions to arguments.
- Variables and statements found in imperative languages were missing in LISP...

Create a class named StudentRecords and add a static variable named records,
which is a list shared among all objects of the class. Then add a method named
add_record that takes a student's name as input and appends it to the shared
records list.
