Python has multiple techniques for looping over data structures

Standard Python `tuple`s are lightweight sequences of immutable objects, yet their implementation may prove inconvenient in some scenarios

In addition to Python's built-in data structures (such as `tuple`s, `dict`s, and `list`s), a library module called `collections` provides data structures with additional features, some of which are specializations of the built-in ones

An assignment only creates a binding (an association) between a name and a target (object of some type). A copy is sometimes necessary so you can change the value of one object without changing the other (when two names are pointing to the same object)

Normal Python references to objects increment the object's reference count thus preventing it from being garbage collected
