Sequence Interfaces
Importing this module does *not* mark any standard classes as
implementing any of these interfaces.
While this module is not deprecated, new code should generally use
:mod:`zope.interface.common.collections`, specifically
:class:`~zope.interface.common.collections.ISequence` and
:class:`~zope.interface.common.collections.IMutableSequence`. This
module is occasionally useful for its fine-grained breakdown of interfaces.
The standard library :class:`list`, :class:`tuple` and
:class:`collections.UserList`, among others, implement ``ISequence``
or ``IMutableSequence`` but *do not* implement any of the interfaces
in this module.

All sequences are iterable. This requires at least one of the
following:
- a `__getitem__()` method that takes a single argument; integer
values starting at 0 must be supported, and `IndexError` should
be raised for the first index for which there is no value, or
- an `__iter__()` method that returns an iterator as defined in
the Python documentation (http://docs.python.org/lib/typeiter.html).
