What are the similarities between strings and lists?

Both strings and lists are sequential data types, meaning they store elements in a specific order. They support indexing, allowing access to individual elements using square brackets notation '[]'. Additionally, both strings and lists support slicing, enabling us to extract portions of the sequence using the colon (:) operator. They can also be iterated over using loops such as for loops, facilitating access to each element one by one in the sequence. Furthermore, both strings and lists support the in and not in operators, which check for the presence or absence of a particular element in the sequence.
