+# Hints
+
+## General
+
+## 1. Tracking Poker Rounds
+
+- Lists in Python may be [constructed][constructed] in multiple ways.
+- This function should [return][return] a `list`.
+
+## 2. Keeping all Rounds in the Same Place
+
+- Sequence types such as `list` support [common operations][common sequence operations].
+- This function should [return][return] a `list`.
+
+## 3. Finding Prior Rounds
+
+- Sequence types such as `list` support a few [common operations][common sequence operations].
+- This function should [return][return] a `bool`.
+
+## 4. Averaging Card Values
+
+- To get the average, this function should count how many items are in the `list` and sum up their values. Then, return the sum divided by the count.
+
+## 5. Alternate Averages
+
+- Sequence types such as `list` support a few [common operations][common sequence operations].
+- To access an element, use the square brackets (`<list>[]`) notation.
+- Remember that the first element of the `list` is at index 0 from the **left-hand** side.
+- In Python, negative indexing starts at -1 from the **right-hand** side. This means that you can find the last element of a `list` by using `<list>[-1]`.
+- Think about how you could reuse the code from the functions that you have already implemented.
+
+## 6. More Averaging Techniques
+
+- Sequence types such as `list` already support a few [common operations][common sequence operations].
+- Think about reusing the code from the functions that you just implemented.
+- The slice syntax supports a _step value_ (`<list>[<start>:<stop>:<step>]`).
+
+## 7. Bonus Round Rules
+
+- Lists are _mutable_. Once a `list` is created, you can modify, delete or add any type of element you wish.
+- Python provides a wide range of [ways to modify `lists`][ways to modify `lists`].
