Minor exmpample: Correct explanation 

* `'a'[0][0][0][0][0]` is semanically correctly not because
  strings are iterables but because they are sequences as well.

* Few weird looking but semantically correct statements:
+ `[] = ()` is a semantically correct statement (unpacking an empty `tuple` into an empty `list`)
+ `'a'[0][0][0][0][0]` is also a semantically correct statement as strings are iterable in Python.
+ `'a'[0][0][0][0][0]` is also a semantically correct statement as strings are [sequences](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-sequence)(iterables supporting element access using integer indices) in Python.
+ `3 --0-- 5 == 8` and `--5 == 5` are both semantically correct statements and evaluate to `True`.
* Given that `a` is a number, `++a` and `--a` are both valid Python statements, but don't behave the same way as compared with similar statements in languages like C, C++ or Java.
