In a response to a question I asked here on the site, I corrected a user who wrote "array" when referring to a Python "list".
I did this for the sake of being a common nomenclature to be used in Python, although I know that list
of Python is very similar to array
of other languages (like Javascript, for example).
But technically, would it be wrong to say "array" when we're talking about a Python "list"?
And if you look at the functionality, is there any difference between a "list" and an "array"?
Note : I preferred not to consider the array of PHP, because in this language the array is something more exotic if compared to other languages that use this term.
