 If function calls in python deliver a wrong object (not matching the above mapping), the translator has to inject additional code to convert it to the proper object. For example, {{{Map.getKeys()}}} in python would be {{{set(map.keys())}}} where the extra {{{set}}} converts the dict_keys into a proper set.
 
-Note that some classes like {{{Arrays}}} or {{{Override}}} do not have a direct python equivalent. calls to static functions in these classes can still be translated. 
+Some more notes:
+* some classes like {{{Arrays}}} or {{{Override}}} do not have a direct python equivalent. calls to static functions in these classes can still be translated. 
+* Different java classes, eg {{{Map}}} {{{AbstractMap}}} and {{{HashMap}}}, may translate to the same python class ({{{map}}}). This can be done because  translation is only 1 way.
