Hi Tutors,
I'm confused by the following possible contradiction. Would someone please
explain or point me to the right docs.
[snip confusion about parameter passing and Python's object model]
By FACT 1 x should be a reference parameter...?
By Fact 2 x would seem to be a copy...?
Function arguments in Python are *neither* passed by reference nor passed by
value (copied).
Here's a post I made some years ago going into long detail about it. I hope
this is helpful for you.
