Python terminology - class / method / object

Question

I'm new to Python. Just trying to get my head around some terminology. Take the following example:

mylist = [1, 2, 3]
mylist.pop(3)

Are the following statements correct:

• mylist is an object of the class list
• pop is a method of mylist
• 3 is a variable of the list mylist
• 3 is a variable of the method pop

Answer 1

• mylist is an instance of the class (or type) list

• pop is a method of mylist

• 3 is a member of mylist or 3 is contained in mylist

• 3 is the argument to the method pop
