Hey guys, would someone mind giving me a quick rundown of how references work in Python when passing arguments into functions? The code below should highlight my specific confusion:
<code> bool1=True lst1=[1,2,3] def func1(arg1): arg1.append(4) def func2(arg1): arg1=False >>func1(lst1) >>lst1 [1,2,3,4] >>func2(bool1) >>bool1 True </code> Why does my list variable get changed for the rest of the program, but my boolean variable doesn't. What am I not understanding? -- Gregory Piñero Chief Innovation Officer Blended Technologies (www.blendedtechnologies.com) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
