/**

* TODO

*

* function: compare_with

* description: compares the calling list with parameter list (other)

* "LEXICALLY" (essentially a generalization of dictionary

* ordering).

*

* link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexicographical_order

*

* Return Value:

*

* o if the two lists are identical, 0 is returned.

* o if the calling list is lexically BEFORE the other list,

* -1 is returned

* o otherwise, the other list is lexically before the calling

* list and 1 (positive one) is returned.

*

* Properties and examples:

*

* The empty list is lexically before all non-empty lists

* (you can say it is "less than" all non-empty lists).

*

* Examples (using mathematical notation):

*

* [2 5 1]

*

* [4 1 3]

* "cartoon" in the dictionary).

*

* [4 5 6 1 2 3 9 9 9]

* ^ ^

* (they have a common prefix of length 4; but at

* the fifth position they differ and the left list

* is the winner (smaller) -- no need to look further)

*

*

* Templates?

*

* Since List is a template class, the elements of a particular

* list need not be integers. For example, we could have

* lists of strings.

*

* Good news: the exact same principle applies because

* strings can be compared just like integers can be compared!

*

* Great news: you don't need to think about this at all!

* The exact same code you would write if you assumed the element

* type is integer will work for other types like strings.

*

* Why? Because, for example, all of these operators:

*

* and >=

*

* all work on strings. They are not 'built-in' to C++, but

* the class string has "overloaded" these operators (they

* result in an appropriate function call).

*

* (In a subsequent exercise, we will do this kind of

* overloading ourselves!)

*

* Examples with lists of strings:

*

* ["egg", "goat"]

*

* ["zebra", "fun"]

*

* [Yes, the components of these lists are THEMSELVES compared

* lexically, but the string class is doing those comparisons)
