If you look in the library reference index you'll find a link to the
`Sequence Types`_ section where it is mentioned as an operator that tests
if some object "contains" another.  And the reference manual has an index
entry called `in operator` which leads to the page Comparisons_, telling
how to overwrite the behaviour in your own classes.
