You should be able to infer this from what the corresponding str or list methods do -- always substituting bytes for those, and int for the single element. ... > Single integers? startswith(ord('A'))

TypeError (this is the same as the previous.)

>>> "asdf".index("df") == "asdf".index("d")

Assuming : >>> data = bytes("asdf", 'ASCII')

Are you saying that, even for the single-char call, I must write: >>> data.index(bytes("d", 'ASCII'))

instead of: >>> data.index("d")

or even: >>> data.index(ord("d"))
