Abstract
When writing Python code, you might find yourself using lists and dictionariespretty often. But do you really know how they work? Fortunately, theirimplementation as well as their history are (really) well documented. In thispresentation, we will dive into CPython 3.6 internals, explain how these datastructures have been designed, how they behave (and why).
