What's not abstract is that if an object has address X and is N bytes long, those bytes (and any larger subobjects) occupy a contiguous range of addresses between X and X+(N-1).
If you're talking about Python objects, that's not necessarily true -- there's no requirement that a Python object occupy a contiguous range of machine addresses. In CPython, many don't, e.g. strings. Even for those that do, it's a range of *virtual* addresses, which doeesn't necessarily correspond to contiguous physical addresses, e.g. if it crosses a page boundary. -- Greg -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
