and ``methodname`` is the name of a method that is defined by the object's type.
Different types define different methods. Methods of different types may have
the same name without causing ambiguity. (It is possible to define your own
object types and methods, using *classes*, as discussed later in this tutorial.)
object types and methods, using *classes*, see :ref:`tut-classes`)
The method :meth:`append` shown in the example is defined for list objects; it
adds a new element at the end of the list. In this example it is equivalent to
``result = result + [b]``, but more efficient.

This function can be called either like this: ``ask_ok('Do you really want to
quit?')`` or like this: ``ask_ok('OK to overwrite the file?', 2)``.
This function can be called in several ways:
* giving only the mandatory argument:
``ask_ok('Do you really want to quit?')``
* giving one of the optional arguments:
``ask_ok('OK to overwrite the file?', 2)``
* or even giving all arguments:
``ask_ok('OK to overwrite the file?', 2, 'Come on, only yes or no!')``
This example also introduces the :keyword:`in` keyword. This tests whether or
not a sequence contains a certain value.
