Operations that could be performed on a list

In Python, the attributes of a data type can be retrieved using the dir() method. For example, the attributes available for the sequence list can be retrieved as follows:

    >>> dir(sequence)    ['__add__', '__class__', '__contains__', '__delattr__',    '__delitem__', '__dir__', '__doc__', '__eq__',    '__format__', '__ge__', '__getattribute__', '__getitem__',    '__gt__', '__hash__', '__iadd__', '__imul__', '__init__',     '__iter__', '__le__', '__len__', '__lt__', '__mul__',    '__ne__', '__new__', '__reduce__', '__reduce_ex__',    '__repr__', '__reversed__', '__rmul__', '__setattr__',     '__setitem__', '__sizeof__', '__str__', '__subclasshook__',     'append', 'clear', 'copy', 'count', 'extend', 'index', 'insert', 'pop', ...
