+New-style and classic classes
+=============================
+
+Classes and instances come in two flavors: old-style or classic, and new-style.
+
+Up to Python 2.1, old-style classes were the only flavour available to the user.
+The concept of (old-style) class is unrelated to the concept of type: if *x* is
+an instance of an old-style class, then ``x.__class__`` designates the class of
+*x*, but ``type(x)`` is always ``<type 'instance'>``.  This reflects the fact
+that all old-style instances, independently of their class, are implemented with
+a single built-in type, called ``instance``.
+
+New-style classes were introduced in Python 2.2 to unify classes and types.  A
+new-style class neither more nor less than a user-defined type.  If *x* is an
+instance of a new-style class, then ``type(x)`` is the same as ``x.__class__``.
+
+The major motivation for introducing new-style classes is to provide a unified
+object model with a full meta-model.  It also has a number of immediate
+benefits, like the ability to subclass most built-in types, or the introduction
+of "descriptors", which enable computed properties.
+
+For compatibility reasons, classes are still old-style by default.  New-style
+classes are created by specifying another new-style class (i.e. a type) as a
+parent class, or the "top-level type" :class:`object` if no other parent is
+needed.  The behaviour of new-style classes differs from that of old-style
+classes in a number of important details in addition to what :func:`type`
+returns.  Some of these changes are fundamental to the new object model, like
+the way special methods are invoked.  Others are "fixes" that could not be
+implemented before for compatibility concerns, like the method resolution order
+in case of multiple inheritance.
+
+This manual is not up-to-date with respect to new-style classes.  For now,
+please see http://www.python.org/doc/newstyle.html for more information.
+
+.. index::
+   single: class
+   single: class
+   single: class
+
+The plan is to eventually drop old-style classes, leaving only the semantics of
+new-style classes.  This change will probably only be feasible in Python 3.0.

+Tuples and Sequences
+====================
+
+We saw that lists and strings have many common properties, such as indexing and
+slicing operations.  They are two examples of *sequence* data types (see
+:ref:`typesseq`).  Since Python is an evolving language, other sequence data
+types may be added.  There is also another standard sequence data type: the
+*tuple*.
+
+A tuple consists of a number of values separated by commas, for instance::
+
+   >>> t = 12345, 54321, 'hello!'
+   >>> t[0]
+   12345
+   >>> t
+   (12345, 54321, 'hello!')
+   >>> # Tuples may be nested:
+   ... u = t, (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
+   >>> u
+   ((12345, 54321, 'hello!'), (1, 2, 3, 4, 5))
+
+As you see, on output tuples are always enclosed in parentheses, so that nested
+tuples are interpreted correctly; they may be input with or without surrounding
+parentheses, although often parentheses are necessary anyway (if the tuple is
+part of a larger expression).
+
+Tuples have many uses.  For example: (x, y) coordinate pairs, employee records
+from a database, etc.  Tuples, like strings, are immutable: it is not possible
+to assign to the individual items of a tuple (you can simulate much of the same
+effect with slicing and concatenation, though).  It is also possible to create
+tuples which contain mutable objects, such as lists.
+
+A special problem is the construction of tuples containing 0 or 1 items: the
+syntax has some extra quirks to accommodate these.  Empty tuples are constructed
+by an empty pair of parentheses; a tuple with one item is constructed by
+following a value with a comma (it is not sufficient to enclose a single value
+in parentheses). Ugly, but effective.  For example::
+
+   >>> empty = ()
+   >>> singleton = 'hello',    # <-- note trailing comma
+   >>> len(empty)
+   0
+   >>> len(singleton)
+   1
+   >>> singleton
+   ('hello',)
+
+The statement ``t = 12345, 54321, 'hello!'`` is an example of *tuple packing*:
+the values ``12345``, ``54321`` and ``'hello!'`` are packed together in a tuple.
+The reverse operation is also possible::
+
+   >>> x, y, z = t
+
+This is called, appropriately enough, *sequence unpacking*. Sequence unpacking
+requires the list of variables on the left to have the same number of elements
+as the length of the sequence.  Note that multiple assignment is really just a
+combination of tuple packing and sequence unpacking!
+
+There is a small bit of asymmetry here:  packing multiple values always creates
+a tuple, and unpacking works for any sequence.
+
+.. XXX Add a bit on the difference between tuples and lists.
