a scalar is a value that is just one thing, as opposed to a collection.
e.g.:
x = 5 # — scalar
x = [1, 2, 3] # — not a scalar
x = MyObject() # — scalar object (SQLA distinguishes here between object and
non…depending on what doc you’re looking at)
x = set([MyObject(), MyObject()]) # — not a scalar

Could someone help give a simple definition of scalar-holding attribute? In
documentation for many to one relationship this term occurred, I tried Google
the term but didn't find a definition. Thx.
