Can you consider data structures as objects of a class in Python?

In Python, almost everything is an object, including data structures such as lists, dictionaries, sets, and tuples. They are implemented as instances of built-in classes.

For example, a list is an object of the class list, a dictionary is an object of the class dict. You can verify this using the type() function:

my_list = [1, 2, 3]
print(type(my_list))  # <class 'list'>

my_dict = {'a': 1}
print(type(my_dict))  # <class 'dict'>

Thus, data structures in Python are objects of their respective classes, which allows using methods and properties defined for those classes.
