Wouldn't know, don't do Python.
Perl's both hash and array use ().
But anonymous hash and array use {} and [].
Hashes use {}, arrays use [], lists use ().
When you set an element of a hash, you use {} to surround its key:
$hash{$key} = $value;
When you set an element of an array, you use [] to surround its index:
$array[$index] = $datum;
When you set both to a list, surround the list with ():
%hash = ( 1, 2, 3, );
@array = ( 'a', 'b', 'c', );

Programming is as much about organization and communication
as it is about coding.
I like Perl; it's the only language where you can bless your
thingy.
