[pyp-w2] Collections Hierarchy

Today, we will re implement part of the Python collections hierarchy using Mixins.

It's normal to think about the collections hierarchy as a tree. But, a lot of functionality is shared between classes in different levels of the hierarchy. That's the perfect use case for Mixins.

Each Mixin class will implement just a portion of the collection behavior. If you evaluate each Mixin by itself, they probably don't make sense, and that's expected. They are thought to be used together, plugged into bigger classes that combines their functionality.

These are the main Mixins we identified for you (you can find them in the mixins.py file):

ComparableMixin

SequenceMixin

RepresentableMixin

ConstructibleMixin

OperableMixin

AppendableMixin

HashableMixin

IndexableMixin

Each of them has a pre set group of methods you will have to respect and implement.

The objective of the assignment is to implement two concrete collection classes: List and Dict (defined in main_collections.py). You can also try creating your own concrete collections, like Set or Tuple for a few extra points. Make sure to add extra test cases if you write you own extra collections.
