[Tutor] data structures in python?

[orbitz]

I think you are confused. Generally data structures are synonymous with 
abstract data types.  But what you are really asking about, I think, are 
structs in C. Just use a class to hold your data, or a dict.  The python 
tutorial easily available from the python website covers how to make and 
use both.
