+<h4>Constructing cons lists</h4>
+
+<p>
+A cons list can be constructed from its head and tail. The prototype of the constructor is:
+<pre><code>cons(typename tuple_access_traits&lt;head_type&gt;::parameter_type h,
+     const tail_type&amp; t)
+</code></pre>
+The traits template for the head parameter selects correct parameter types for different kinds of element types (for reference elements the parameter type equals the element type, for non-reference types the parameter type is a reference to const non-volatile element type).
+</p>
+<p>
+For a one-element cons list the tail argument (<code>null_type</code>) can be omitted.
