I was in my second class of the Python workshop I'm giving here in one Argentine University, and I was explaining how to think using name/object and not variable/value. Using id() for being pedagogic about the objects, the kids saw that id(3) was always the same, but id([]) not. I explained to them that Python, in some circumstances, caches the object, and I kept them happy enough. But I really don't know what objects and in which circumstances. .
