Except, that you correctly point out that if you pass a dictionary into a function, it is ``passed by reference'' and any modifications to the dictionary outside the function will result in changing the effects of the function. One method is copy.deepcopy, you could also eval(repr(dictionary)), but one shouldn't even have to worry about this! But what if one of the elements in the dictionary is actually a function, class, or some other object that eval(repr()) cannot handle? I wonder how well copy.deepcopy does in comparison... Anyway, shame on Python!
