Hi, I have a rather simple question for which I couldn't find an answer. I noticed how a significant number of objects in Python return a __repr__() string along the lines of :
< Object at 0xXXXXXX> I find this notation quite convenient to avoid out of control strings when using large arrays but I was wondering how you can use the memory address for assigning a new object. In c, one could simple have a pointer to that memory address and voila, you have a new object you can analyze however it seems like python is allergic to direct memory manipulation. Hence, I was wondering what is the correct way to go about obtaining objects returned in such a fashion? What am I going wrong or what am I not getting?
