In Python, 'list' is a basic built-in type. Python has no 'array'
type, though that term is often used to refer to the 'array' type
defined in Numeric Python (which is not part of the standard library,
so not really part of Python).

You may also want to compare and constrast Python 'list' and 'dict'.
