Fix two English usage errors caught by Jan Wells:  Changed "subsequence"
to "sub-sequence" in two places, and avoid improper use of "hopefully" in

Of course, we can use Python for more complicated tasks than adding
two and two together. For instance, we can write an initial

If two items to be compared are themselves sequences of the same type,

items of two sequences compare equal, the sequences are considered
equal. If one sequence is an initial subsequence of the other, the

which gives complete (though terse) reference material about types,
functions, and modules that can save you a lot of time when writing
Python programs. The standard Python distribution includes a
