This module implements specialized container datatypes providing alternatives to Python’s general purpose built-in containers, dict, list, set, and tuple.

  • namedtuple() factory function for creating tuple subclasses with named fields
  • deque list-like container with fast appends and pops on either end
  • ChainMap dict-like class for creating a single view of multiple mappings
  • Counter dict subclass for counting hashable objects
  • OrderedDict dict subclass that remembers the order entries were added
  • defaultdict dict subclass that calls a factory function to supply missing values
  • UserDict wrapper around dictionary objects for easier dict subclassing
  • UserList wrapper around list objects for easier list subclassing
  • UserString wrapper around string objects for easier string subclassing
