## Example

In this example, we will check whether a value is included in a list and print the result in the console.

### Step

1. Drag a `button` component to the canvas and open the `Action` tab. Select the `press` event of the button and drag the `Log.write` function to the event flow.
2. Call the function `List.includes` inside the `Log.write` function.
3. Then call the function `Conversion.toList` inside the `data` parameter of the `List.includes` function. Enter the value to be checked for in the list in the `value` parameter.
4. Enter the values of the list to be passed in the `Conversion.toList` function.

2. In this example, the value printed will be `true`.
