Sure, I understand that "is" is not "==", cause "is" just compares id(a)==id(b).
I have a win32 CPython and the range of "singletons" is from -5 to 256 on my machine.
I am asking about what happens in Python interpreter? Why is there a difference between running one
line like "a=1;b=1" and two lines like "a=1 \n b=1"? Does it decide to locate
memory in different types depend on a code?
Thanks
Probably, for optimisation purpose I guess. This is very implementation
specific and as a newby, you should not care about such trivial details.
The worst thing on earth you could do would be to code knowing that some
values are singleton and take profit from it. Well, maybe coding in perl
would be worse...
