===Pylint suggestions for current Python draft===
Pylint flags up (inter alia) the point that `list` is a predefined name (for the list constructor function) in Python. Perhaps worth using an alternative name, to avoid confusion ?
( That might also, on reflection, make it a little easier to extend those functions to allow for arguments of type `range(m, n)`, in addition to the arguments of type `list`, to which I think they are restricted at the moment. You would need the eponymous Python list() function to make the conversions from ranges ).

== Rotate vs. Shift ==
[[wikipedia:Logical_shift|"Logical shift"]] is different from [[wikipedia:Circular_shift|"Rotate" or "Circular Shift"]] and we should probably acknowledge in the task description that there's another kind of "shift" which some people are likely to want in some contexts. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] ([[User talk:Rdm|talk]]) 23:06, 17 December 2022 (UTC)
