Sequence types support the following operations. The \samp{in} and
Most sequence types support the following operations. The \samp{in} and
\samp{not in} operations have the same priorities as the comparison
operations. The \samp{+} and \samp{*} operations have the same
priority as the corresponding numeric operations.\footnote{They must
