There is one model that has helped me much understanding how Python ticks

A double strand of rope, I think. If it were one strand, we'd write "a - 1". :)

Two fibers, possibly twisted.... let's call it string!

I really had to think about how to call the thing while avoiding the term string in order not to add to the confusion...
