"""
Sequence Interfaces

Importing this module does *not* mark any standard classes as
implementing any of these interfaces.

While this module is not deprecated, new code should generally use
:mod:`zope.interface.common.collections`, specifically
:class:`~zope.interface.common.collections.ISequence` and
:class:`~zope.interface.common.collections.IMutableSequence`. This
module is occasionally useful for its fine-grained breakdown of interfaces.

The standard library :class:`list`, :class:`tuple` and
:class:`collections.UserList`, among others, implement ``ISequence``
or ``IMutableSequence`` but *do not* implement any of the interfaces
in this module.

      values starting at 0 must be supported, and `IndexError` should
      be raised for the first index for which there is no value, or
