#### Discrepancies between glossary definitions and abstract base classes:
* **Python's glossary defines iterable as any object with iter() or getitem() and sequence as any object with getitem() and len(). It does not define collection.**
* **Passing ABC Iterable to isinstance() or issubclass() checks whether object/class has method iter(), while ABC Collection checks for iter(), contains() and len().**
* **Python's glossary defines iterable as any object with special methods iter() and/or getitem() and sequence as any object with getitem() and len(). It doesn't define collection.**
* **Passing ABC Iterable to isinstance() or issubclass() only checks whether object/class has special method iter(), while ABC Collection checks for iter(), contains() and len().**
### ABC Sequence
* **It's a richer interface than the basic sequence.**
