The ``array`` module also provides methods for creating arrays of fixed types
with compact representations, but they are slower to index than lists. Also
note that the Numeric extensions and others define array-like structures with
note that NumPy and other third party packages define array-like structures with
various characteristics as well.
To get Lisp-style linked lists, you can emulate cons cells using tuples::

Return a :term:`slice` object representing the set of indices specified by
``range(start, stop, step)``. The *start* and *step* arguments default to
``None``. Slice objects have read-only data attributes :attr:`~slice.start`,
:attr:`~slice.stop` and :attr:`~slice.step` which merely return the argument
values (or their default). They have no other explicit functionality;
however they are used by Numerical Python and other third party extensions.

Slice objects are also generated when extended indexing syntax is used. For
example: ``a[start:stop:step]`` or ``a[start:stop, i]``. See
:func:`itertools.islice` for an alternate version that returns an iterator.
