  • Python is just a pile of dicts/hashtables under the hood. Even the basic int type is actually a dict of method names:

    x = 1
    print(dir(x))
    ['__abs__', '__add__', '__and__', '__bool__', '__ceil__', '__class__', '__delattr__', '__dir__', ... ]
    

    PS: I will never get away from the fact that user-space memory addresses are also basically keys into the page table, so it is hashtables all the way down - you cannot escape them.
