 +We call the variable ''*my-desig*'' with asterisks as this is the common convention in Common Lisp for naming global variables.
  
 We use the ''a'' macro to create designators. Internally it uses the ''make-designator'' function to create a designator of the specified type. The macro allows us to write cleaner code for designator creation. We use the ''a'' macro to create designators.
