+This is an optional topic!
+
+If you do a + b, in reality this is internally replaced by add(a, b). 
+
+These are the ["Mapping Operators to Functions"](https://docs.python.org/3/library/operator.html#mapping-operators-to-functions):
+
+|Operation|Syntax|Function|
+|---|---|---|
+|Addition|a + b|add(a, b)|
+|Concatenation|seq1 + seq2|concat(seq1, seq2)|
+|Containment Test|obj in seq|contains(seq, obj)|

+|Bitwise And|a & b|and_(a, b)|
+|Bitwise Exclusive Or|a ^ b|xor(a, b)|
+|Bitwise Inversion|~ a|invert(a)|

+|Slice Assignment|seq[i:j] = values|setitem(seq, slice(i, j), values)|
+|Slice Deletion|del seq[i:j]|delitem(seq, slice(i, j))|
+|Slicing|seq[i:j]|getitem(seq, slice(i, j))|
+|String Formatting|s % obj|mod(s, obj)|
