Brandon Rhodes: All Your Ducks In A Row: Data Structures in the Std Lib and Beyond - PyCon 2014

Speaker: Brandon Rhodes "Why are Python programmers crazy about lists and dictionaries, when other languages tout bitmaps, linked lists, and B+ trees? Are we missing out? Come learn how data structures are implemented on bare metal, how to select the right data structure, how the list and dictionary cover a wide swath of use cases, and when to dip into the Standard Library or a third-party package for an alternative."
