<p>Tests whether <i>item</i> is the same as an existing element of <i>list</i>.
If the <i>item</i> is not an existing element,
<b>adjoin</b> adds it to <i>list</i> (as if by <b>cons</b>)
and returns the resulting <i>list</i>; 
otherwise, nothing is added and the original <i>list</i> is returned.
</p>
<p>The <i>test</i>, <i>test-not</i>, and <i>key</i> 
affect how it is determined whether <i>item</i> is the same as an <i>element</i> of <i>list</i>.
