\begin{cfuncdesc}{int}{PySequence_SetItem}{PyObject *o, int i, PyObject *v}
Assign object \var{v} to the \var{i}th element of \var{o}. Returns
\code{-1} on failure. This is the equivalent of the Python
- statement \samp{\var{o}[\var{i}] = \var{v}}.
+ statement \samp{\var{o}[\var{i}] = \var{v}}. This function \emph{does not}
+ steal a reference to \var{v}.
