"""
Contains all classes and functions to deal with lists, dicts, generators and
iterators in general.

Array modifications
*******************

If the content of an array (``set``/``list``) is requested somewhere, the
current module will be checked for appearances of ``arr.append``,
``arr.insert``, etc.  If the ``arr`` name points to an actual array, the
content will be added

This can be really cpu intensive, as you can imagine. Because |jedi| has to
follow **every** ``append`` and check wheter it's the right array. However this
works pretty good, because in *slow* cases, the recursion detector and other
settings will stop this process.

It is important to note that:

1. Array modfications work only in the current module.
2. Jedi only checks Array additions; ``list.pop``, etc are ignored.
