According to Plotkin's definition, when you pass a value like a 100MB string: "This is a long string of text..." # continues on for millions more characters does the interpreter make a copy of the 100MB string? If not, then it isn't pass (call) by value. -- Steve “Cheer up,” they said, “things could be worse.” So I cheered up, and sure enough, things got worse. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
