The other day I suggested the most valuable doc page to bookmark is the
global module index.  Here's a demonstration.  Start at:

    http://www.python.org/dev/doc/devel/modindex.html

Click "__builtin__", which takes you to

    http://www.python.org/dev/doc/devel/lib/module-builtin.html

Click the "2" in "See Chapter 2", which takes you to

    http://www.python.org/dev/doc/devel/lib/builtin.html#builtin

Scroll down to section 2.3.6 and choose your sequence poison.

I use the dev docs instead of the latest release docs because I generally
run from CVS on my system, however in this case it has the added advantage
that the link on the __builtin__ page is more useful.

wow, that's pretty obscure. i barely even saw the link to chapter 2. i always the modules index page open and i always wished there was an explicit link to lists, tuples, dict, set, etc. maybe these explicit links could be at the top of the __builtins__ page.
