# [[Python Operators Membership]]

## 🎯 한 줄 통찰 (One-line insight)
`in`/`not in` test whether a value exists within any sequence — lists and strings alike — using identical syntax. [S1]

## 🧠 핵심 개념 (Core concepts)
- **`in`** — True if a specified value is present in the sequence. [S1]
- **`not in`** — True if a specified value is NOT present in the sequence. [S1]
- **Works across sequence types** — lists and strings both support membership testing. [S1]

## 📖 세부 내용 (Details)
- List membership: `fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]; print("banana" in fruits)`. [S1]
- List non-membership: `print("pineapple" not in fruits)`. [S1]
- String membership: `text = "Hello World"; print("H" in text); print("hello" in text)  # False, case-sensitive; print("z" not in text)`. [S1]

## ⚖️ 모순 및 업데이트 (Contradictions & updates)
소스에서 모순되는 정보는 발견되지 않음.

## 🛠️ 적용 사례 (Applied in summary)
현재 발견된 실제 적용 사례가 없습니다 — 이미 Python Strings 챕터에서 문자열 대상 `in`이 선행 소개되었고, 여기서 리스트로 확장된다. [S1]

## 💻 코드 패턴 (Code patterns)
Membership test on a list (Python):
```python
fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
print("banana" in fruits)
print("pineapple" not in fruits)
```
