But does it say that objects have values? I don't see where you
get this idea. Consider this code:
class A(object):
pass
class B(object):
x = 0
a = A()
b = B()
b2 = B()
b2.x = a
What is the "value" of the object now bound to the name "a"? What
about the "value" of the object bound to b, or b2?
I would say that in Python, objects do not have values. Objects
are values.
