lincoln> strings have methods like string.count("f") returns 1. What
lincoln> methods do lists have? Is it a similar class to string?
Similar in some ways, different in others. Some things to play with:
1. At an interpreter prompt, execute:
help("")
help([])
2. Check the relevant sections of the tutorial:
http://docs.python.org/dev/tut/node5.html#SECTION005120000000000000000
http://docs.python.org/dev/tut/node5.html#SECTION005140000000000000000
Two significant differences:
1. Strings are immutable.
2. Lists can contain any kind of object, not just characters.
