That's right. I thought that int as object will stay the same object after += but with another integer value. My intuition said me that int object which represent integer value should behave this way. But by design python's integer behave differently. I fond that NumPy's 1-d types behaves as objects with mutable values. >>> from numpy import * >>> a=array([1]) >>> id(a) 10912544 >>> a += 1 >>> id(a) 10912544 >>> a array([2]) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
