Well, the point Matt was making is that traversing through a list and
traversing through a string are the same.
# Given this:
s = 'abcde'
l = ['a','b','c','d','e']
# These are identical:
for ch in s:
pass
for ch in l:
pass
# And these are identical:
print s[3]
print l[3]
Slicing is identical. Subsetting is identical. The only difference is
that I can change an element of the list.
