I'm looking at http://tinyurl.com/cdbwog. It shows all the operations

"The pop() method is only supported by the list and array types. The
optional argument i defaults to -1, so that by default the last item

The page you should probably be looking at is
http://wiki.python.org/moin/TimeComplexity
I was not aware of this page; thanks for pointing it out.
Perhaps you could suggest on the tracker a place or places in the doc
where this relatively new wiki page could be referred to. Perhaps in the
introductory paragraphs of the Built-in Type section of the lib ref.
Where would you have like to have found it?
The page was added in response to threads like this one, but it
obviously is more obscure than it should be.
