[Tutor] Can you modify every nth item in a list with a single assignment?

Nope, this adds 43 to each of the 4 numbers, but 
the original suggestion was that we should add 43 
to each element of the llist indexed by those numbers.

ie

MyList[1] + 43
MyList[4] + 43

etc...

But Jeff's solution still looks like a good one to me.
If a feature only saves one line of code then leave it
out is my motto!
