I would like to find a snazzy way to elements in the MASTER LIST. The method I want to use is the following:

1. Swap the first element of SWAP LIST 1, with the first element of SWAP LIST 2, in the MASTER LIST.
. . . . a. Swap the 2 and 4.
. . . . b. Swap the 3 and 8.
. . . . c. Swap the 4 and 9.

I have done it with an awkward process, by creating a new list, and parsing element by element. My Mathematica code is below.

The final result I want is:

FINAL LIST:

{4,8,2,9,16,3,5,25,27,7,32,49,64,11,13,81,121,17,125,128,169,243,19,256,289,343,23,361,512,529,625,29,729,841,961,1024,1331,1369,1681,1849,31,37,2048,41,2187,2197,2209,2401,2809,3125,3481,3721,43,4096,4489,4913,5041,5329,6241,6561,6859,6889,7921,8192,9409,10201,10609,47,11449,53,11881,12167,12769,14641,15625,16129,16384,59,16807,17161,18769,19321,19683,22201,22801,61,24389,24649,26569,27889,67,28561,29791,29929,32041,32761,32768,36481,37249,38809,39601,44521,49729,50653,51529,52441,54289,57121,58081,59049,63001,65536,66049,68921,69169,72361,71,73441,76729,73,78125,78961,79507,80089,83521,85849,94249,96721,97969,100489,103823,109561,113569,117649,120409,79,121801,124609,128881,130321,131072}
