Python Question / Quiz; What is the output of the following Python code, and why? Comment your answers below!

a) [1, 2, 3] The gotcha: a = [4, 5, 6] creates a NEW list, it doesn't modify the original. So b still points to [1, 2, 3]. For beginners: If it was a[:] = [4, 5, 6], THEN b would change too. Reassignment vs mutation — key difference!

@PythonPr answer is: a) [1, 2, 3] For More Reference =>>

@PythonPr 1. a = [1, 2, 3] a new list is created for variable a 2. b = a, this doesn't create a new list for variable b but rather references the list objects of var a 3. a = [4, 5, 6], a new list is created for Var a but variable b still references the original list 4. A. is the output

B = 123456 for me. The real answer is where and what are you coding? It matters where you are coding and where the python script will be used. Maya Python code doesn't care what order the list is in. Who can tell I am an animator? If you're coding in python only and that's your only desire B = 123 (print b) but the answer is know your coding environment where you plan to use your code or you would get the incorrect output or an error

@PythonPr A This is because the variable "b" refers to the original list of the variable "a"(which is the first one). The second list, which is also reassigned to the variable "a" doesn't have any effect on what the variable "b" is pointing to.

@PythonPr C

@PythonPr B

@PythonPr C. b is a reference to the memory allocation of a. Changing a doesn’t change that b is a reference to a.

@PythonPr A is the answer

@PythonPr B.

@PythonPr Option c is correct

@PythonPr A

@PythonPr How would it be if after a:456 we get a new line b=a?

@PythonPr Output? Chaos 😎… just kidding, need the code first
