Coding to much in Visual Basic, like Fortran 77, is bad for your mind.

Python names are pointer to values. Python behaves like Lisp - not
like Visual Basic or C#.
Here you make x point to the object which is currently pointed to by
the first element in the list test. If you now reassign

So the for body now looks like this?:
temp = v[:]
temp.insert(0, k)
finallist.

I think the fundamental "disconnect" is this issue of mutability and
immutability that people talk about (mainly regarding tuples and
whether they should be thought of as static lists or not)
Coming from VBA I have a tendency to think of everything as an
array...
So when I create the following

Thank you both, the assigning using slicing works perfectly (as I'm
sure you knew it would)... It just didn't occur to me because it
seemed a little nonintuitive... The specific application was
def dicttolist (inputdict):
finallist=[]
for k, v in inputdict.iteritems():
temp = v

As a relative new comer to Python, I haven't done a heck of a lot of
hacking around with it. I had my first run in with Python's quirky (to
me at least) tendency to assign by reference rather than by value (I'm
coming from a VBA world so that's the terminology I'm using). I was
surprised that these
